This
study is presented as a composite and as such it is constructed to be shown as
it was developed, as it happened. New on this study was the measurement
of temperature which is not on the first bits of data but is on the
original and will be mentioned with each segment. At he end of the series there
is a total data table with the temperature readings.
The
Velador was stationary, bolted with clamps to a solid desk in my basement. The
basement has less environmental variations and the door to the furnace was
closed isolating the area. At points where the laser image was migrating
off the LCD a shot was taken and the laser adjusted as quickly as possible to
the LCD center and another shot was taken. This allowed me a large graph
surface to use with the relatively small LCD size. Basically an unlimited LCD
area to use. At one point when a second velador was carefully brought close to
the master Velador in typical real life style the master was bumped and had to
be readjusted. This is indicated as we go thru the data. The initial 6 runs
were sequential shots on each day and at this point i was trying to find a
sequence of the data from day to day. However a pattern was not apparent and
fortuitously i saw on a different scale a movement of the family of day spots,
dropping on the LCD so i decided to abandon the family type spots and just
record the daily movement of one shot. this was an aid to the camera as it is
having serious start up problems--cause unknown.
The
images are “hand” analyzed. Previous work had shown there is no real
difference in spot position using the self timer verses just pressing the
shutter. There is a delay in recording the shot and the image is taken it seems
after the pressing of the shutter vibration is over. So the images are from
just pressing the shutter by hand.
The
orientation of the Velador was laser at the 60 degree position and the camera
at 240 degrees (Laser 60 deg to east of north--camera 60 degrees west of
south.) The Velador was 2 meters below the ground level. It was on a
level surface and solid to a heavy desk. To view the horizon from the
Velador perspective one would have to tip one end up about 10 degrees--however
it was level when being used.
The first column is the time of
that day. The second is X and the third is Y value. The Temperature was 53.6 F.
There is a complete set of all data points with temperatures at the end of this
presentation.
