A method and apparatus for photogrammetrically determining a six degree of freedom spatial relationship between a first object and a second object is disclosed. In one embodiment, the method comprises photogrammetrically determining a first orientation of the first object relative to the second object, photogrammetrically determining a second orientation of the second object relative to the first object, and determining the six degree of freedom spatial relationship between the first object and the second object from the photogrammetrically determined first orientation of the first object relative to the second object and the photogrammetrically determined second orientation of the second object relative to the first object.

A non-contact biometric sensing device is described. The device includes a processing device, a user interface communicatively coupled to the processing device, a display communicatively coupled to the processing device, a laser doppler vibrometer sensor communicatively coupled to the processing device, and an infrared camera communicatively coupled to the processing device. The processing device is programmed to utilize mechanical motion data received from the laser doppler vibrometer sensor and thermal distributions data from the infrared camera to calculate biometric data, when signals originating from the laser doppler vibrometer sensor and the infrared camera are reflected back towards the device from a target.
