A new method for position measurement with CCDs is presented. Two-dimensional position coordinates can be precisely measured in a short time with a special optical system having two linear array CCDs. The experimental setup with a signal-processing unit is described in detail. Experimental results are shown, and the sources of error are analyzed. # 1998 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers.
