    摘要: Aspects of the present disclosure provide a system for measuring an object, the system including a plurality of frame segments. The frame segments are configured to mechanically couple together to form a frame. The plurality of frame segments includes a plurality of measurement device link segments and each of the plurality of measurement device link segments includes a measurement device which together form a plurality of measurement devices having a field of view within or adjacent to the frame. Each of the plurality of measurement devices is operable to measure three-dimensional (3D) coordinates for a plurality of points on the object. The system further includes a computing device to receive data from the plurality of measurement devices via a network established by the plurality of measurement device link segments.

    摘要: An actuator may include a stator supporting a magnet; a stationary pole; and a bobbin supporting a winding of a coil, the bobbin being coaxial with the stator and stationary pole, and positioned inside the magnet and outside the stationary core. A gap may be provided between the bobbin and the stationary pole. A beam steering mechanism may include a mirror; a frame; a pivot anchor fixed to the frame and connected to the mirror; and an actuator. An output end of the actuator may be connected to the rear surface. A beam steering mechanism may alternatively include a flexure; a mirror attached to the flexure; a frame; supports fixed to the frame and the flexure; a pivot anchor fixed to the frame and connected to the mirror or the flexure; and an actuator. An output end of the actuator may be connected to the flexure.

    摘要: A system and method for coordinate measurement is provided. The system includes a laser tracker and a moveable articulated-arm coordinate measuring machine (AACMM). The AACMM has an articulated arm with a probe end and an actuator. A retroreflector is coupled to the probe end. When the AACMM is in a first position, the system emits a laser beam and measures a position of the retroreflector while the AACMM also measures the position of retroreflector. When the AACMM is in a second position, and based on an activation of the at least one actuator by an operator, the system transmits a signal from the AACMM to the laser tracker and rotates the laser tracker towards the second position in response to the laser tracker receiving the signal. A means for transforming the first or second coordinate system to a common coordinate frame of reference is provided.

    摘要: A three-dimensional (3D) measuring device includes a cooling fan and an enclosure attached to a projector and a camera. The camera images a pattern of light projected by the projector onto an object to determine 3D coordinates points on the object. A fan draws air through an opening in the front of the enclosure, across a plurality of components in the enclosure and out a second opening in the enclosure.
