Example:
This example illustrates how a moving object is handled by the application:
X axis

x
is
M oving conveyer
Cake
Circle to
draw
10000
In this application, an x-y stage draws a chocolate picture on a cake while the cake travels
on a conveyor. The drawing must be accurate with respect to the cake.
In order to draw a circle of radius 10,000 encoder counts on the cake in one second, the
x-axis motor must follow the trajectory:
x(t) = 10,000 * cos(2
πt) + c(t)
where c(t) is the position of the conveyor.
If the conveyor has an encoder, it can be used to compensate for its motion.
