Abstract

See full text

An optical measuring system capable of high resolution measurement of objects, and a method of measuring the same, are provided. The optical measuring system is formed in one integral, portable unit, and includes a laser source having associated optics for emitting a wide collimated light beam. A CCD receiver and a processor housed together and spaced apart from the laser source receive the wide collimated light beam. The CCD receiver has a plurality of diode cells, or 'pixels,' formed in a linear array, and the diode cells exhibit output signals corresponding to the received light beam. The processor processes the output signals and determines a measurement associated with the output signals.
