ABSTRACT:
A method of using a photosensor as an encoder and a trigger in a production apparatus includes imaging natural surface features of a target, generating data frames of the surface features using the photosensor, processing the data frames to detect movement of the target, and triggering otherwise dormant production components once a movement of the target is detected.
