Abstract
A method displays images of a scene with restrictions. The method includes measuring a first plurality of 3D coordinates and a second plurality of 3D coordinates with a 3D measuring instrument at a first position and a second position. The first plurality of 3D coordinates and the second plurality of 3D coordinates are registered together in a common frame of reference. A trajectory is defined within the scene that includes a plurality of trajectory points, the plurality of trajectory points including a first trajectory point and a second trajectory point. At least one restriction is defined at the first trajectory point. A plurality of 2D images are generated at each trajectory point, a first 2D image is associated with the first trajectory point. The first 2D image is changed based on the at least one restriction. The first 2D image is displayed on a display device.
