    Abstract: An apparatus for chassis measurement for determining the alignment of the wheels of a motor vehicle. The apparatus includes a detachably fixed measurement head apparatus on the vehicle wheel to be measured, wherein the measurement markings are positioned parallel to the front and rear side of the vehicle or the vehicle stand level. After arranging the fastening apparatus and positioning the measurement markings, the laser light source is activated and a plane is projected in space, wherein the length of these laser light lines generates at least intersection points together with the measurement markings, the intersection points of which are detected as track gauge and used for computation in order to determine the fall, trailing and spread data and the virtual longitudinal travel axis of the vehicle. By a camera-assisted measurement value detection apparatus, different electromagnetic spectra for each wheel to be measured are detected and supplied for data processing.
