380-78-0130 ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A measuring machine including a measuring system in which a measuring increment is divided into smaller units for better resolution and accuracy. The increased mea- surement resolution is accomplished by detecting a Moire fringe pattern at two locations, generating at least two square waves representative of the measurement, assigning a digital value to the square waves at two different times, using the digital values of the square waves at the two times as a ROM address for look-up. The ROM has values (markers) stored as an indication of whether the measure- ment should be incremented and by how much (+1 or -1 in one embodiment). The square waves are pulse patterns which are offset (i.e., change state at different points), using the digital values from a present state and previous state to provide a ROM address representative of whether a pulse should be created indicating a relative movement and if so providing an indication of which direction in which the apparatus is moving.
