摘要

The main purpose of each of the navigation systems is the determination of an object's position in a given reference frame. This can be realized in many different ways, and one of them is a triangulation method that is based on known reference object positions. This paper presents a new triangulation system that has one major difference from existing systems: the lack of mechanical moving parts such as motors, rotating lasers or rotating diodes. The measuring device without moving parts is easier to implement, energy-efficient and more resistant to disturbances such as vibration. The work presents a detailed description of the prototype of the static positioning system. Every component of the system, starting with hardware configuration and ending with computational algorithms, is fully described and discussed. The accuracy of the system has been experimentally verified with very good results - the accuracy is comparable to existing systems with mechanical moving parts. The experimental results not only showed the proper work of the system, but also revealed new facts that are foreseen to further improve the measurement accuracy of the device.
