Laser Telemeter Module

A laser telemeter module is clipped on one side of camera VISIOCAT© instead of one of the 2 positioning fork
Motorized telemeter is piloted by SOFTCAT software and allows to look at a point in the field of camera
Then SOFTCAT defines distance of the element pointed relative to the camera
It also knows amplitude of the zoom and it is able to deduce the dimensions of an object lying at the same distance as the target point.
Measurement is done on a photo on the same principle than current measurement on CAMEROV© VISIOCAT©.
Distance accuracy : +- 2 mm
Range of telemeter is about 80 meters
Measurement accuracy depends on :
distance of element to be measured
and
preliminary calibration of the device
This accuracy will be effective only on elements situated in a perpendicular plan of the camera axis
It is possible to make the measurement :
with pre-positions (existing CAMEROV© VISIOCAT©). In that case accuracy may be optimal :
0,2 % of the distance. For example from 1 mm to 50 cm or from 2 mm to 1 m out of pre-position. In that case operator adjusts zoom and accuracy will be less : approximately 5 mm from a distance from 1 m or 25 mm to 5 m
