Abstract: A handheld three-dimensional (3D) measuring system operates in a target mode and a geometry mode. In the target mode, a target-mode projector projects a first line of light onto an object, and a first illuminator sends light to markers on or near the object. A first camera captures an image of the first line of light and the illuminated markers. In the geometry mode, a geometry-mode projector projects onto the object a first multiplicity of lines, which are captured by the first camera and a second camera. One or more processors determines 3D coordinates in the target mode and the geometry mode.

Abstract: Rotary assemblies for arm segments of an articulated arm coordinate measuring machines are provided. The rotary assemblies include a drive assembly having an output shaft passing therethrough. The drive assembly includes a motor subassembly and an output subassembly having a gear assembly and a shaft engagement element. The motor subassembly is configured to drive the gear assembly and the shaft engagement element to drive the output shaft. In some embodiments, a motor controller is operably coupled to the motor subassembly. The motor assembly provides a torque on an arm segment about a second axis in response to a signal from the motor controller.
