摘要：A system includes a support, a pendular element, an elastic restraint, an imagesensor, and a processing system. The elastic restraint couples the pendular element tothe support and applies to the pendular element a restraining force that opposesmovement of the pendular element in at least a first direction. The image sensor

captures images of the pendular element. The processing system determines one ormore movement measures describing movement of the support from comparisons ofones of the images captured by the image sensor. In another aspect, a pendular elementis elastically coupled to a support. A restraining force that opposes movement of thependular element in at least a first direction is applied to the pendular element. Imagesof the pendular element are captured. One or more movement measures describingmovement of the support are determined from comparisons of ones of the capturedimages.
