Abstract
A laser distance measuring device for determining a distance to a target, in particular for a weapon system, comprises a first laser light source that is designed to emit laser pulses with a first pulse power, a second laser light source that is designed to emit laser pulses with a second pulse power, wherein the second pulse power of the second laser light source is higher than the first pulse power of the first laser light source (TX), a receiver that is designed for receiving laser pulse radiation (RP) reflected by the target, an electronic controller for actuating the first laser light source, the second laser light source and the receiver. The electronic controller is designed to emit a first laser pulse by means of the first laser light source, after which, if a distance to the target cannot be determined with the first laser pulse by means of the receiver, a second laser pulse is emitted by means of the second laser light source.
