Zusammenfassung:A multi-beam system includes a light source configured to emit light; a fiber bundle connected to the light source; and a camera configured to capture an image set including images corresponding to each fiber connected to the light source. The fiber bundle includes a central fiber having one end connected to the light source, and N layers of fibers surrounding the central fiber. The first layer of fibers includes M fibers, each having one end connected to the light source, and the Nth layer of fibers includes more than M fibers, but only M fibers in the Nth layer of fibers have one end connected the light source. A processor is configured to determine a centroid of each image in the image set to produce a centroid map and generate a fiber location map comprising fiber locations of all fibers in the fiber bundle based on the centroid map.
