Fig. 32: Contour data as focus data for connected reading systems
• If the VMS4100/5100 multi-dimensional measurement system is operated as part of
a complete system with a reading station (see section 3.2.5 Expanding the system with
a reading station), the contour data can be used as the basis for dynamic camera
focusing.
• For this purpose, the controller supplies continuous information about the distance of
the 2D LiDAR sensor to the object surface via the CAN bus.
