Abstract
A method of measuring an object uses a coordinate measuring machine, which is positioned within an environment (e.g., a clean room). The method receives sensing information relating to the coordinate measuring machine, the environment, or both the coordinate measuring machine and the environment. Next, the method controls the coordinate measuring machine to perform, based on the sensing information, a specified mechanical action.
