ABSTRACT:
A laser telemeter is driven on two mutually orthogonal axes by stepper motor assemblies to acquire targets mounted at predetermined points on a vehicle. The distances to the targets and the angular orientations are obtained. A computer equipped with a microprocessor controls the movement of the stepper motors by storing in memory the number of steps made during rotation about each axis, and calculates, from the distance between the telemeter and each point, and from the angles of rotation of the beam between the various points measured, the distance between at least two points. These are automatically compared with known standard distances to obtain discrepancies which indicate the deformation of the vehicle. The targets can be disks with back-reflective material thereon as a peripheral ring and a central dot.
