Patent attributes
An exemplary method generally includes reflecting, by a movable reflector, electromagnetic radiation from a field of view in a region of interest of an additive manufacturing machine to an optics assembly; splitting, by a beam splitter of the optics assembly, the electromagnetic radiation into a plurality of beams; directing the plurality of beams to a plurality of optical sensors such that each optical sensor of the plurality of optical sensors receives a corresponding and respective beam of the plurality of beams; generating, by the plurality of optical sensors, a plurality of outputs, each output including information related to a corresponding and respective beam; and controlling, by a controller, the movable reflector to move the field of view to maintain a predetermined relationship between the field of view and a moving build point within the region of interest.
