Gocator Line Profile Sensors: User Manual
Gocator Web Interface • 207
Gocator’s measurement tools can currently generate the following kinds of geometric features:
Points: A2Dor 3D point. Can be used for point-to-point or point-to-line measurements.
Lines: Astraight line that is infinitely long. Useful for locating the orientation of an enclosure or part, or
to intersect with another line to form a reference point that can be consumed by a Feature tool.
Planes: A plane extracted from a surface. Can be used for point-to-plane distance or line-plane
intersection measurements.
Circles: A circle extracted from a sphere.
The following tables list the tools that can generate geometric features. (Tools that can't generate
geometric features are excluded.)

Geometric features generated by Profile tools
The Feature Intersect tool can also produce an intersect point. Script tools do not currently take
geometric features as input.
