Claim 9:
10. The 3D measuring device of claim 9, wherein the 2D scanner comprises a second light source, a second beam steering unit, a third angle measuring device, and a second light receiver, the second light source operable to emit a second beam of light, the second beam steering unit operable to steer the second beam of light to a second direction onto a second object point, the second direction determined by a third angle of rotation about a third axis, the third angle measuring device operable to measure the third angle of rotation, the second light receiver operable to receive second reflected light, the second reflected light being a portion of the second beam of light reflected by the second object point, the second light receiver operable to produce a second electrical signal in response to the second reflected light, the 2D scanner operable to cooperate with the processor system to determine a second distance to the second object point based at least in part on the second electrical signal, the 2D scanner further operable to cooperate with the processor system to determine 2D coordinates of the second object point based at least in part on the second distance and the third angle of rotation.
