    Abstract: An apparatus for laser profiling inspection includes a camera housing having a longitudinal axis and a substantially hemispherical viewing window positioned transversely relative to the longitudinal axis. A camera with a fisheye lens is positioned within the camera housing to capture images through the viewing window. A laser mounting is mounted to the viewing window with the laser mounting extending outwardly from the viewing window along the longitudinal axis of the housing. A laser is positioned at a remote end of the laser mounting. The laser projects a laser beam toward the camera. A mirror is supported by the laser mounting between the laser and the camera.
