Abstract
A method for measuring the internal space of an elongate body. The elongate body has in a global xyz-coordinate system a longitudinal axis x. A laser profile scan is carried out, in which a laser scanner, which carries out scans in a plane, is moved through the internal space of the elongate body. The scan plane is tilted about the y-axis by a tilt angle α or about the z-axis by a tilt angle γ. Preferably, the scan plane is tilted about the y-axis and the z-axis corresponding to the global coordinate system of the internal space. An apparatus for carrying out the method.
Claims23
A method for measuring internal space of an elongate body having a longitudinal axis x in a global xyz-coordinate system, comprising:
- moving a laser scanner, which carries out scans in a plane, through the internal space of the elongate body to perform a laser profile scan of the internal space,
- wherein the laser scanner is tilted to provide a scan plane that is tilted about a y-axis by a tilt angle α or about a z-axis by a tilt angle γ.
