Definitions
- the invention relates to a device having the features of the generic term of Claim 1.
- the environment of the laser scanner can be optically scanned and measured.
- a line scan camera which takes RGB signals, is mounted on the laser scanner, so that the measuring points of the scan can be completed by a color information.
- the camera holder is rotatable. To avoid parallax errors, the camera, for taking its records, is swiveled onto the vertical rotational axis of the laser scanner, and the laser scanner is lowered until the camera has reached the horizontal rotational axis. This method requires a high precision of the components.
- the invention is based on the object of creating an alternative to the device of the type mentioned in the introduction. This object is achieved according to the invention by means of a method comprising the features of Claim 1.
- the dependent claims relate to advantageous configurations.
- the device according to the invention makes it possible to generate a "colored" emission light beam, so that the reception light beam already gets the color information.
- a linking of the scan which is formed by the entity of measuring points with colored pictures or with varicolored pictures after the scan has been made, is no longer necessary. Parallax errors are automatically avoided.
- All three laser beams are required for gaining color and brightness information. For determining the distances, however, one laser beam is sufficient, which is prefer- ably modulated.
- the laser beam which serves to determine the distance has preferably a higher intensity than the two other laser beams.
- the two other laser beams may supply further information on the distance, but, for the rest, they supply largely redundant information which can be used for error corrections.
- the light emitter preferably is designed in such a way that, independently of each other, i.e. individually, the three laser beams can be switched on and off and their intensity can be con- trolled and/or the corresponding lasers can be mounted and dismounted.
- the blue laser beam with a wave length of less than 400 nm it might be advantageous to preferably use the blue laser beam with a wave length of less than 400 nm.
- the other two laser beams preferably have an intensity which is lower than the intensity of this blue laser beam, i.e. the blue laser beam is dominating.
- the laser scanner is designed to generate exclusively the blue laser beam with a wave length of less than 400 nm.
- Figure 1 shows a partially sectional view of the laser scanner
- Figure 2 shows a schematic illustration of the laser scanner.
- a laser scanner 10 is provided as a device for optically scanning and measuring the environment of the laser scanner 10.
- the laser scanner 10 has a measuring head 12 and a base 14.
- the measuring head 12 is mounted on the base 14 as a unit that can be rotated around a vertical axis.
- the measuring head 12 has a mirror 16, which can be rotated around a horizontal axis.
- the intersection point of the two rotational axes is designated center Ci 0 of the laser scanner 10.
- the measuring head 12 is further provided with a light emitter 17 for emitting an emission light beam 18.
- the emission light beam 18 is a superposition of three laser beams R, G and B which, with different wave lengths, are within the visible range of approximately 300 to 1000 nm wave length, such as 790 nm, 555 nm and 375 nm.
- the wave lengths of the three laser beams R, G an B are selected in such a way that they define the three-dimensional RGB color space, i.e. that they are distributed well over the visible range.
- the laser emitter 17 has three laser diodes 17R, 17G, 17B (or other lasers), each of which generates one of the three laser beams R,G or B.
- the superposition can take place by feeding the three free laser beams R, G and B into the collimator of the light emitter 17 or by feeding them into a common optical fiber which is then fed to the collimator.
- At least one of the three laser beams R, G, B in the emission light beam 18, prefer- ably all three laser beams R, G, B, are amplitude-modulated, for example with a sinusoidal or with a rectangular-waveform modulation signal.
- the emission light beam 18 is emitted by the light emitter 17 onto the mirror 16, where it is deflected and emitted to the environment.
- a reception light beam 20, which is reflected in the environment by an object O or scattered otherwise, is captured by the mirror 16, de- fleeted and directed onto a light receiver 21.
- the direction of the emission light beam 18 and of the reception light beam 20 results from the angular positions of the mirror 16 and the measuring head 12, which depend on the positions of their corresponding rotary drives which, in turn, are registered by one encoder each.
- a control and evaluation unit 22 has a data connection to the light emitter 17 and the light re- ceiver 21 in measuring head 12, whereby parts of such unit can be arranged also outside the measuring head 12, for example a computer connected to the base 14.
- the control and evaluation unit 22 determines, for a multitude of measuring points X, the distance d between the laser scanner 10 (i.e. the center Ci 0 ) and the (illuminated point at) object O, from the propagation time of emission light beam 18 and re- ception light beam 20. For this purpose, the phase shift between the two light beams 18 and 20 is determined and evaluated. Scanning takes place along a circle by means of the (quick) rotation of the mirror 16.
- the whole space is scanned step by step, by means of the circles.
- the entity of measuring points X of such a measurement is designated scan.
- the center Ci 0 of the laser scanner 10 defines the stationary reference system of the laser scanner 10, in which the base 14 rests. Further details of the laser scanner 10 and particularly of the design of measuring head 12 are described for example in US 7,430,068 B2 and DE 20 2006 005 643 Ul, the respective disclosure being in- corporated by reference.
- the distance d of the measuring points X by means of evaluation of the phase shift, it is sufficient to use only one of the three wave lengths, i.e. the modulated of the three laser beams R, G and B. If necessary, this beam can have a somewhat higher intensity (i.e. power of the electro-magnetic wave) compared to the two other beams. Basically, all wave lengths are suitable to the same extent. With regard to eye protection, which can better be obtained with wave lengths below 400 nm, due to the behavior of the receptors of the human eye, it is, however, advantageous to use the blue laser beam B (with a wave length shorter than 400 nm), for determining the distances d of the measuring points X. If the two other laser beams R and G are modulated as well, their evaluation can be used for eliminating ambient light or for gaining additional distance information.
- each measur- ing point X comprises a color and a brightness information which is determined by the control and evaluation unit 22 as well, i.e. the brightness values for any of the three colors of the laser beams R, G and B.
- Each brightness value corresponds to a gray -tone value which is determined, for example, by integration of the bandpass- filtered and amplified signal of the light receiver 21 over a measuring period which is attributed to the measuring point X, namely for any of the three laser beams R, G, and B separately. All three laser beams R, G and B consequently contribute to gaining the color and brightness information.
- the light emitter 17 can be designed in such a way that the three laser beams R, G and B can be switched on and off independently of each other and that their intensity preferably can also be controlled.
- the composition of the emission light beam 18 can then be adapted to the application. If, for example, only the distance d and the brightness (gray-tone value) shall be measured, it is sufficient to use, for example, the blue laser beam B and to let the other two laser beams R and G switched off.
- a modular design is also possible for the light emitter 17, so that the laser diodes for generating the three laser beams R, G and B can be mounted and dismounted independently of each other, for example, being plug-in components or the like. If applicable, only the laser diode necessary for generating the laser beam which serves to determine the distance d, is mounted permanently.
