Abstract

See full text

A method for measuring 3D coordinates of points on a surface of an object by providing an articulated arm connected to a laser line probe. The laser line probe having a color camera sends color images to a processor, which determines 3D surface coordinates using triangulation. The processor weights each of the colors received from the pixels to enable dark and bright regions of the surface to be measured simultaneously.
