Abstract
A laser scanner includes a rotary member, light-transmitting glasses, and a mirror. The rotary member rotates about a rotation axis. The light-transmitting glasses are disposed on the rotary member. The mirror guides a laser beam such that the laser beam is incident on the light-transmitting glass. When the rotary member is viewed in a direction parallel to the rotation axis, a polygon is formed by connecting inner surfaces of the light-transmitting glasses. Given that the angle formed between the inner surface of each light-transmitting glass and a straight line parallel to the rotation axis is defined as an inclination angle, the inclination angles of at least two of the light-transmitting glasses have different values.
