METHOD AND DEVICE FOR THREE-DIMENSIONAL LIGHT DETECTION AND RANGING (LIDAR), AND THREE-DIMENSIONAL MEASURING DEVICE THEREOF

摘要

A three-dimensional imaging apparatus includes: a housing having a first opening and a second opening; a first imaging device configured to collect a first set of image data, the first imaging device being mounted within the housing and having an optical axis through the first opening of the housing and a first field of view configured with respect to the optical axis; and a second imaging device configured to collect a second set of image data, the second imaging device being mounted within the housing and having a scanning plane through the second opening of the housing and a second field of view configured with respect to the scanning plane. The optical axis of the first imaging device and the scanning plane of the second imaging device form an angle. The first field of view and the second field of view do not overlap.
