Abstract: A 3D measurement device for optically scanning and measuring an environment is provided. The device includes a measuring head having a light emitter which emits an emission light beam, a light receiver and a control and evaluation device. The light receiver receives a reception light beam that is reflected or otherwise scattered by an object in the environment of the 3D measurement device. The control and evaluation device determines at least the distance from the object for each of a plurality of measuring points. A battery pack is removably coupled to the measuring head. The battery pack includes a battery housing and a plurality of individual batteries that are circular in cross-section. The plurality of individual batteries are arranged in a plurality of rows that define a row direction. The plurality of rows include a first row offset from a second row by one-half a diameter of the individual batteries.

Abstract: A 3D measurement system, a laser scanner and a measurement device are provided. The system includes a 3D measurement device and a 360 degree image acquisition system coupled in a fixed relationship to the 3D measurement device. The 360 degree image acquisition system includes a first photosensitive array operably coupled to a first lens, the first lens having a first optical axis in a first direction, the first lens being configured to provide a first field of view greater than 180 degrees. The image acquisition system further includes a second photosensitive array operably coupled to a second lens, the second lens having a second optical axis in a second direction, the second direction is opposite the first direction, the second lens being configured to provide a second field of view greater than 180 degrees.

Abstract: A 3D measuring device is provided. The device includes a measuring head with a light transmitter and a light receiver. A control and evaluation device is coupled to the light transmitter and light receiver and determines the distance to the object. An accessory interface allows an accessory device to be mechanically connected to the measuring head and can be electrically connected to the control and evaluation device. The accessory interface includes a receiving section and a contact section. The receiving and contact sections are arranged such that the accessory device can be inserted into the accessory interface in an insertion direction in order to electrically and mechanically couple the accessory device to the accessory interface. A support structure having an integral slot is coupled to the measuring head. The slot has the receiving section for the mechanical connection and the at least one contact section.
