SURVEYING EQUIPMENT HAVING VIDEO DISPLAY DEVICE

摘要

PURPOSE:To attain automatic measurement using surveying equipment by providing the titled equipment with an objective lens, a focusing lens system, a solid- state image pickup element, a video signal processing circuit for processing a video signal outputted from said element, and a video display device. CONSTITUTION:In an optical wave range finder, a telescope part is constituted of an objective lens 1 and a movable focusing lens 2 and an MOS solid-state image pickup element 3 is arranged on the image-forming surface of the telescope part. A video signal generated from the element 3 is inputted to an image display device 5 through a video signal processing circuit 4 and the image is displayed. To attain remote control from a position separated from the optical wave range finder, an external output device 6 is connected to the circuit 4. Consequently, the diopter adjustment of an eyepiece part can be omitted, the operating time can be shortened and many persons can observe the image simultaneously, so that the reliability of the observation data can be improved.
