Measurement device
Provided is a measurement device that is highly accurate due to an optical configuration. The following are provided: a pattern projector that projects an optical pattern; and a pattern image receiver that receives the optical pattern which was projected. The pattern image receiver includes: a pattern image pickup unit that picks up an image of the optical pattern and converts the same to image pickup data; and a point coordinate value calculation unit that, on the basis of the converted image pickup data, calculates a 3D coordinate value for the position of the image pickup unit or a position known from the image pickup unit.
1. A measurement device comprising:
a pattern projector configured to project an optical pattern to space; and
a pattern image receiver configured to receive the projected optical pattern, the pattern image receiver including:
a pattern image pickup unit configured to pick up an image of the projected optical pattern and to convert the image picked up into image pickup data;
a point coordinate value calculation unit configured to calculate three-dimensional coordinate values of a measurement point on which the pattern image receive s disposed on the basis of the converted image pickup data; and
a display unit configured to display the three-dimensional coordinate values calculated by the point coordinate value calculation unit;
which is characterized in that:
the pattern image receiver is configured to be portable and to be disposed on the errant point with locating the pattern page pickup unit at a predetermined distance from the measurement point;
the projected optical pattern comprises a plurality of blocks of dot patterns arranged in a predetermined interval and indicating locations in the projected optical pattern;
the point coordinate calculation value unit is configured to derive a distance from the pattern projector to the pattern image pickup unit on the basis of intervals of a dot pattern picked up by the pattern image pickup unit, a degree of inclination of the pattern image pickup unit with respect to the optical axis of the projected pattern on the basis of a distortion of the intervals of the dot pattern picked up by the pattern image pickup unit, and two-dimensional coordinate values in a plane coordinate system of the projected optical pattern from the dot pattern picked up by the pattern image pickup unit; and
the point coordinate calculation value unit is further configured to calculate the three-dimensional coordinate calculation values of the measurement point on the basis of distance from the pattern projector to the pattern image pickup unit, the degree of inclination of the pattern image pickup unit and the two-dimensional coordinate values in the plane coordinate system of the projected optical pattern.
2. The measurement device according to claim 1 , wherein
each of the dot patterns comprises a plurality of light spots indicating a coordinate value in the plane coordinate system by a combination of brightness, wavelength, position and/or time variation of each light spot.
