“…Continuous zoom cameras can image and measure objects at different distances, which have been widely used and researched in security monitoring, visual tracking and precision measurement. In the zooming process, inconsistencies of optical axes will cause declines in image quality and target shifts, negatively impacting performances of tracking and measurements of targets 1 . The current measurement methods of optical axis parallelism include collimator method, projection target-board method, laser optical axis instrument method 2 , pentaprism method 3 and so on.…”
