Abstract
Systems for mapping a stage include a lighting fixture, a scanner, and a controller. The lighting fixture is configured to at least partially illuminate the stage with structured light. The scanner is configured to detect the structured light on the stage. The controller is connected to the lighting fixture and the scanner. The controller is configured to control the lighting fixture to illuminate a portion of the stage with the structured light, control the scanner to scan the structured light on the portion of the stage, receive a signal from the scanner as scan data, and translate the scan data into three-dimensional location data.
