摘要:
A system is provided for determining a distance to a target. In an exemplary embodiment, the system includes a pole and a distance measuring device. The pole includes a plurality of sockets formed in a surface of the pole above a selected lower reflecting point and a reflector mounted in each of the plurality of sockets. The lower reflecting point defines a minimum distance from a first end of the pole above which the reflectors are located for use with the distance measuring device. At least a portion of a signal received from the distance measuring device is reflected back to the distance measuring device by a receiving reflector. The distance measuring device includes a transmitter that transmits the signal at a first time, a receptor that receives the reflected signal from the receiving reflector at a second time, and a processor to determine the distance from the transmitter to the receiving reflector using the first time and the second time.

A system and method are provided for determining a distance to a target. The method includes sending light, at a first time, to a light reflector mounted in a reflector device, receiving light reflected from the light reflector at a second time, and determining the distance to the reflector device using the difference between the first time and the second time. The reflector device has a first lateral surface, a second lateral surface parallel to the first lateral surface, and a rod surface extending from the first lateral surface to the second lateral surface. The reflector device includes sockets arranged in the rod surface with a light reflector mounted in each socket. The sockets may be arranged in a plurality of rows with possibly a plurality of sockets in each row. The reflector device may be mounted as an insert to or at the top of a target to determine the distance to the target.
