This publication was born out of Prof. Magnes’ opto-mechanical integration work (also published in the Journal of Applied Optics). This opto-mechanical scanning method can be a stand-alone shape recognition technique requiring minimal computational power. We can also invision this technique as a complimentary method to existing shape recognition technique taking advantage of an symmetry evaluation.
