LASER MEASUREMENT OF A VEHICLE FRAME

A laser measurement system operates to measure portions of a vehicle, such as a vehicle frame. The measurements are used, for example, to determine if the portions of the vehicle are bent or damaged. The measurement system includes a laser scanner and at least one target assembly that can be connect...

Zusammenfassung:	A laser measurement system operates to measure portions of a vehicle, such as a vehicle frame. The measurements are used, for example, to determine if the portions of the vehicle are bent or damaged. The measurement system includes a laser scanner and at least one target assembly that can be connected to a point of the vehicle. The laser scanner emits a laser beam that is detected by the target. Time and laser position information detected by the target are used to determine the location of the target, as well as the location of the point of the vehicle. The location of the point is then compared to an original location of the point to determine if damage has occurred. Linvention porte sur un système de mesure au laser qui fonctionne pour mesurer les parties dun véhicule, comme une armature de véhicule. Par exemple, on utilise les mesures pour déterminer si des parties du véhicule sont incurvées ou endommagées. Le système de mesure comprend un scanneur à laser et au moins un ensemble cible pouvant être connecté à un point du véhicule. Le scanneur à laser émet un faisceau laser détecté par la cible. On utilise les informations de temps et de position du laser détectées par la cible pour déterminer la localisation de la cible, ainsi que la localisation du point du véhicule. On compare ensuite la localisation du point à la localisation dorigine du point afin de déterminer si un dommage a eu lieu.
