In this paper, a remote opti­cal method to local­ize and track a mobile micro­con­vey­or is pre­sent­ed. The prin­ci­ple of the pro­posed method con­sists of detect­ing a laser beam that is reflect­ed by the micro-con­vey­or and ana­lyz­ing this opti­cal­ly received sig­nal to obtain the cor­re­spond­ing posi­tions of the micro-con­vey­or. The main ele­ments of the sys­tem are a cor­ner cube retrore­flec­tor, a steer­ing mir­ror, and a beam split­ter. The cor­ner cube retrore­flec­tor is placed onto the micro-con­vey­or in order to allow the opti­cal sig­nal to be reflect­ed back in its inci­dent direc­tion. The steer­ing mir­ror aids in scan­ning the sur­face with the laser. The beam split­ter is used to guide the reflect­ed laser beam towards a quad­rant pho­to­di­ode, which inter­prets the opti­cal sig­nal to cor­re­spond­ing out­put volt­ages. In this work, a micro-con­vey­or is suc­cess­ful­ly local­ized and tracked with a res­o­lu­tion bet­ter than 55 μm, over a sur­face of 100mmx100mm, with a dis­place­ment veloc­i­ty of 30 mm/s.
