ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for position detection for an object having a detection pattern formed by a concavity or convexity. The position detecting apparatus includes a scanning system for scanning the object with a light beam, a photoelectric transducer for receiving the information light reflected from the detection pattern to produce an electric signal, and a processing unit for computing, on the basis of the electric signal, the position of the detection pattern. Unwanted components included in the information light are prevented from being received by the photoelectric transducer, or electric signals corresponding to the unwanted components are excluded, so that the accuracy of signal processing and the accuracy of position detection are improved.
