20120257186 | Method for Measuring Distances - A method for measuring distances of targets by measuring the time of flight of pulses, in particular laser pulses, reflected on those targets, including the steps of; transmitting pulses having a pulse interval which varies according to a modulation signal as transmitted pulses, and concomitantly recording of reflected pulses as received pulses; determining a first series of distance measurement values from times of flight between transmitted pulses and those received pulses which are respectively received within a first time window following each transmitted pulse; determining at least a second series of distance measurement values from times of flight between transmitted pulses and those received pulses which are respectively received within a second time window following each transmitted pulse; and determining that series of distance measurement values which is least affected by the modulation signal as result of the distance measurement. | 10-11-2012 |
20120169876 | LASER SCANNING DEVICE FOR MOUNTING ON THE ROOF RACK OF A VEHICLE - The invention relates to a laser scanning device for mounting on the roof rack of a vehicle, comprising a base support, which is configured as an “X”, can be mounted on a roof rack and on which a laser scanning module that spans the fork of the “X” can be fixed. | 07-05-2012 |
20110271752 | Laser Hydrography - Method for laser hydrography in which at least one laser beam is transmitted emitted from a known location and at in a known direction onto the surface of a body of water and through this the water onto the bottom of the body of water and measurement points of the water surface and the water bottom in a coordinate system are determined from transit-time measurements of the reflections of the laser beam at the water surface and water bottom, wherein the local inclination of the water surface at an entry point of the laser beam into the body of water is determined from at least three measurement points of the water surface, wherein a local entry angle of the laser beam into the body of water is determined from the local inclination and the known direction of the laser beam, and wherein the measurement point of the water bottom is created as a function of the laser beam direction, the local inclination, and the optical refraction due to the corresponding local entry angle of the laser beam. | 11-10-2011 |
20110038442 | Apparatus and Method for Measurement of the Reception Time of a Pulse - Apparatus for measurement of the reception time of a pulse in a receiving system, which contains at least one receiving channel with a non-linear transmission response, which receiving channel produces at its output a received signal, having a memory, in which the received signals of reference pulses with a predetermined different amplitude are available as reference signals with respect to a time scale, and having an evaluation device, which is connected to the receiving system and to the memory and compares a received signal with each reference signal with a variant time offset in order to determine that reference signal and that time offset for which the comparison discrepancy is a minimum, and outputs this time offset as the reception time with respect to the time scale. | 02-17-2011 |
