  • Patent number: 9605954
    Abstract: A distance measuring laser pointer has at least one laser source capable of emitting a light ray; and two optical elements, disposed in front of the at least one laser source, receiving and transferring the light ray into a first conic light beam and a set of multiple second conic light beams. The first conic light beam projects a first light pattern on a surface of a target, and the set of multiple second conic light beams project a second light pattern on the surface of the target. An intersection between the first light pattern and the second light pattern changes position depending on variation of a distance between the distance measuring laser pointer and the target to indicate the distance. The distance measuring laser pointer simultaneously indicates a diameter or length of the target when indicating the distance.

  • Patent number: 9176229
    Abstract: A three-dimensional distance measuring method includes: projecting at least one beam set forming a projection plane onto a surface of an object, the beam set including multiple beams transmitted according to a predetermined first path function and linearly arranged to form detection points on the surface of the object; rendering the beams reflected by the surface of the object to pass through a focus of a focusing element to form a sense image on a photosensitive memory element; obtaining a corresponding second path function according to an image formation position of each beam on the photosensitive memory element and a position of the focus of the focusing element; and calculating an intersection position of each first path function and the corresponding second path function to obtain a spatial position of each detection point on the object.
