An Overview of Activities at NIST Toward the Proposed ASTM E57 3D Imaging System Point-to-Point Distance Standard

Volume 12, Issue 2

Prem Rachakonda, Bala Muralikrishnan, Meghan Shilling, Daniel Sawyer, Geraldine Cheok

Terrestrial laser scanners (TLSs) are a class of 3D imaging systems that measure the 3D coordinates of an object in their work volume. They capture the 3D coordinates using a ranging unit mounted on two rotation stages that are orthogonal to each other as...
