ABSTRACT:
An interferometer having a beam generating section and a reflecting section. Mechanisms are provided to direct a beam from the generating section to the reflecting section even when the reflecting section moves freely in three dimensions. Mechanisms are also provided to direct the beam back from the reflecting section to the generating section even when the reflecting section moves freely in three dimensions. A method is presented that enables the absolute distance between the generating and reflecting sections to be determined.
