ABSTRACT:
A scanning measurement system comprises a device for imaging an object, wherein the imaging device generates a plurality of data values representing distances from the imaging device to respective points on the object, and a device for processing the data values generated by the imaging device, wherein the processing device comprises a device for entering a predetermined 21/2-D mathematical model of the object, and a device for comparing the data values to the model to determine the object's thickness.
