Abstract
A lateral movement sensing system which utilizes a two-frequency laser to provide two laser beams to illuminate a surface of a laterally moveable body. A beam splitter divides the two-frequency laser into two beams, and the system detects the modulation frequency of the scattered light when the laterally moveable body is moving. This detected modulation frequency is compared to the frequency difference between the two beams. The phase difference between the detected modulation frequency and the difference frequency represents units of lateral displacement of the laterally moveable body.
