A simple and robust laser-based docking system developed by our vacation student Will Maddern. Below are some videos of the system in operation. You may need to refresh the page or press the play buttons a few times to get the videos to play in browsers apart from Internet Explorer. In Internet Explorer, you may need to click the video once to activate it, before pressing the play button.
The top three videos are intended to be approximately synced, although they will be off in places. The bottom video is more of a stand-alone one.
This video is set at a very low frame rate, a byproduct of the logging process we used.
