ABSTRACT:
Laser displacement meter for measuring a displacement of an object such as a moving distance, a moving angle, and a moving speed. The meter has a generator circuit for generating a displacement signal; another generator circuit for generating a first signal which corresponds to R sin.theta. value of the displacement signal, and a second signal which corresponds to R cos.theta. value of the displacement signal (R represents an amplitude, .theta. represents a phase of the displacement signal); a memory for storing a displacement value being defined by the first signal and the second signal where .theta. is between 0 and 2.pi.; a circuit for transferring a position signal corresponding to the displacement value from the memory according to the first signal and the second signal; a counter for counting a number, being defined as dividing .theta. by 2.pi., corresponding to the displacement signal and for determining the displacement of the object according to the counted number and the position signal.
