Abstract
Systems and methods can be used for analyzing image data to determine an amount of vibration and/or misalignment in an object under analysis. Image distortion present in the image data due to vibration and/or misalignment of the object during operation can be detected automatically or manually, and can be used to determine an amount of vibration and/or misalignment present. The determined amount of vibration and/or misalignment can be used to determine alignment calibration parameters for inputting into an alignment tool to facilitate alignment of the object. Various steps in determining the image distortion and/or the alignment calibration parameters can be performed using single components or can be spread across multiple components in a system.
