Method for the determination of the 3D coordinates of an object
A method serves for the determination of the 3D coordinates of an object. An improved method of this kind is characterized in that the object is surrounded by a plurality of reference probes having coded reference marks; and in that a plurality of shots are taken of the object such that a part of the object and a part of a reference probe is in each case included thereon.
1. A method for the determination of the 3D coordinates of an object, comprising the steps of:
surrounding the object by a plurality of reference probes having coded reference marks, the reference probes being unconnected the object; and
taking a plurality of shots of the object such that a part of the object and a part of a reference probe are in each case included thereon; and
determining the 3D coordinates of the object based on reference marks included in at least one of the plurality of shots.
2. A method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein some or all of the reference probes are longer than the measurement field of the 3D sensor.
3. A method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein some or all of the reference probes are of bar shape.
4. A method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein shots which include at least an end of a reference probe, include at least an end of a further reference probe.
5. A method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the reference marks are automatically decoded.
6. A method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein some or all of the shots are linked to one another by a 3D matching process.
7. A method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein coded reference marks are also provided on the rear sides of some or all of the reference probes.
8. A method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the positions of the reference marks are detected and saved in a first measurement run.
9. A method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein further measurement runs are carried out on the basis of stored positions of the reference marks.
10. A method in accordance with claim 2 , wherein some or all of the reference probes are of bar shape.
11. A method in accordance with claim 10 , wherein shots which include at least an end of a reference probe, include at least an end of a further reference probe.
12. A method in accordance with claim 2 , wherein shots which include at least an end of a reference probe, include at least an end of a further reference probe.
13. A method in accordance with claim 3 , wherein shots which include at least an end of a reference probe, include at least an end of a further reference probe.
14. A method in accordance with claim 13 , wherein the reference marks are automatically decoded.
15. A method in accordance with claim 12 , wherein the reference marks are automatically decoded.
16. A method in accordance with claim 11 , wherein the reference marks are automatically decoded.
17. A method in accordance with claim 10 , wherein the reference marks are automatically decoded.
18. A method in accordance with claim 4 , wherein the reference marks are automatically decoded.
19. A method in accordance with claim 3 , wherein the reference marks are automatically decoded.
20. A method in accordance with claim 2 , wherein the reference marks are automatically decoded.
