The present invention discloses a motion mechanism for achieving a method for generating optical path differences in large-field-of-view and high-spectral-resolution detection, comprising a first optical mirror, a second optical mirror, a first-mirror spring, a second-mirror spring, and an internal fixed plate.

The optical mirror structure and motion speed ratio are designed to ensure that the optical paths of all light beams are consistent, thus achieving a large-field-of-view and high-spectral-resolution.
