Abstract
A method for validating the axis linearity of a displacement mechanism for a radiation detector configured to detect high-energy radiation emitted by an irradiation device comprises providing a container configured to receive a liquid. A tactile sensor and a standard element are positioned within the container configured for receiving the liquid. A displacement mechanism is structured to displace at least one of: (1) the tactile sensor; and (2) the standard element along at least one spatial axis. The tactile sensor is used to tactilely detect the standard element.
