Abstract

An improved measuring device has been developed by combining a visual detector such as a camera, digital distance measuring device, and a positional sensor. The system uses positional measurements of the device along with distance measurements to generate a point cloud and uses the visual image along with distance measurements to identify and label objects. The point cloud and labeled objects are combined to generate a schematic of the environment being measured and extract relevant measurements.
