Abstract
Some embodiments of the invention may include an electro-optical distance measurement method having at least one emission of a light signal, in particular of laser light, from at least one light source onto a target object, detection of a fraction of the light signal returning from the target object using a detector and a signal processing electronics system connected downstream from the detector, and/or determination of a distance to the target object. In some embodiments, the emitted light signal comprises in this case a sequence of sequential elements of, in each case at least one light pulse and one light signal train. In some embodiments, the light pulses each have a higher intensity amplitude than the light signal trains. Some embodiments may also an electro-optical distance meter having the features analogous to The distance measurement method according to the invention.
