ABSTRACT:
An optical method and apparatus is provided for determining the color and profile of a target surface of an object. The target surface is scanned with an incident beam of light containing a plurality of wavelengths including at least one well defined wavelength. A return beam reflected from the target is split into at a first and second return beam. The first return beam is utilized for detecting the profile of the target surface; and, a plurality of detectors are provided that detect color information corresponding to the target surface from the second return beam.
