I work for a company which builds and tests satellites and my role is to characterise the optics (telescopes) before the satellite is released to the customer. We have a rig for measuring the optical properties of the telescope and I have been asked to automate the rig which currently is controlled via tcl.
Most of our translation stages can be controlled over ethernet using TCP so I plan to use the TCP sensor. Would this be compatible with an ethernet hub such as this one?
The camera we have can be controlled via openCV so I hope I can use the openCV component?
If anyone has experience undertaking this kind of task (lab environment) would be great to hear from you 
This shouldn’t belong to this category.
Moved to “Configuration”, but to be fair to the OP it is a rather hard to categorize question as it does have a hardware component to it.
