Abstract: Disclosed is a method for three-dimensionally measuring objects, according to which the positions of a measuring element (14) are determined by means of a locating method (e.g. optically, electromagnetically, or acoustically), the positions being relative to a reference system defined by the associated locating system (16), and desired dimensions of the object (24) being calculated from the determined positions of the measuring element. Also disclosed is a corresponding device for three-dimensionally measuring objects. The measuring element can be moved by means of a robot arm (26) or a flying object (e.g. a type of zeppelin).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for measuring lengths pneumatically. According to the invention, the medium used for measuring is conducted through a front nozzle and a measuring nozzle, onto a deflection plate. The distance of the deflection plate from the measuring nozzle is determined from the change in pressure p2 occurring between the front nozzle and the measuring nozzle. The pressure p1 in front of the front nozzle is also measured and the length value resulting from the pressure measurement between the front nozzle and the measuring nozzle is corrected according to said pressure p1. This ensures that a high level of measuring accuracy can be achieved using a small quantity of compressed air.
