Claim 6:
7. A system configured to stabilize a scan pattern of an optical sensor system having at least one angled mirror for measuring blood analyte levels in biological tissue, the system comprising:
a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith; and
one or more processors configured to execute the program instructions to cause the system to:
receive a scan of the biological tissue from the optical sensor system, wherein:
the scan comprises a depth scan into the biological tissue,
the scan further comprises reflection of light on the at least one angled mirror and transmission of the light into the biological tissue, and
the at least one angled mirror is configured to oscillate along two axes for at least some of the scan creating variations in an optical path length for at least some of the scan; and

set an oscillation rate of the at least one angled mirror to a value based on a depth scan rate associated with the optical sensor system.
