  • Patent number: 9644945
    Abstract: A method of measuring an object by means of at least one first laser scanner is described which detects measured values for a plurality of measurement points, wherein only measured values which lie above a predefined threshold value are used for measuring the object. The method is characterized in that threshold values are determined separately for at least two ranges of measurement points of the laser scanner or laser scanners and the threshold value used for a measurement point is selected in dependence on a quality criterion.

  • Publication number: 20160010976
    Abstract: A method for the measurement of an object by means of a laser scanner is described, wherein the laser scanner detects at least a first type of measurement values and a second type of measurement values. In this respect, a resultant value is calculated in that measurement values of the first type are weighted by measurement values of the second type.
