Measurement system with automatic tracking for customizing swimming pool components

A system comprising:

• a scanning subsystem comprising a camera and a ranging device;
• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more memories including instructions executable by the one or more processors for causing the one or more processors to perform operations including:
• tracking movement of a target object around a perimeter of a swimming pool by analyzing images of the target object received from the camera;
• while tracking the movement of the target object around the perimeter of the swimming pool, automatically controlling an orientation of the ranging device to follow the movement of the target object around the perimeter of the swimming pool;
• while the target object is positioned at a particular location around the perimeter of the swimming pool, receiving a user request to acquire range data, the range data indicating a spatial distance from the ranging device to the particular location;
• in response to receiving the user request, instructing the ranging device to collect the range data while the ranging device is oriented toward the particular location;
• receiving the range data from the ranging device;
• and
• storing the range data to a storage device.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising program code that is executable by one or more processors for causing a system to perform operations including:

• tracking movement of a target object around a perimeter of a swimming pool by analyzing images of the target object received from a camera;
• while tracking the movement of the target object around the perimeter of the swimming pool, automatically controlling an orientation of a ranging device to follow the movement of the target object around the perimeter of the swimming pool;
• while the target object is positioned at a particular location around the perimeter of the swimming pool, receiving a user request to acquire range data, the range data indicating a spatial distance from the ranging device to the particular location;
• in response to receiving the user request, instructing the ranging device to collect the range data while the ranging device is oriented toward the particular location;
• receiving the range data from the ranging device;
• and
• storing the range data to a storage device.
