Abstract
To simplify the reflectors for electro-optical distance measurement with a distance measuring apparatus with modulation of light outside of the light source, the optical bundle for distance measurement is focussed on to the target. Thereby, distance measurements on unprepared (non-cooperative) objects or on objects prepared only with simple reflecting foils are made possible.
