Claim 26:
27. An apparatus for three-dimensional measurement of an object, comprising:
a trigger implemented in circuitry and configured to acquire image information from a measurement camera and to trigger, based on an evaluation of an image content of the image information, forwarding of the image information to an evaluator for determining measurement results or an evaluation of the image information by an evaluator for determining measurement results;
wherein the trigger is configured to perform an image analysis or an analog processing of one or more image sensor analog signals or a processing of one or more digitized image sensor signals, wherein the image analysis or the analog processing of the one or more image sensor analog signals or the processing of one or more digitized image sensor signals is used to detect, using the evaluation of the image content, when the image content has shifted with respect to a reference image content by at least a predetermined shift or by more than a predetermined shift and to trigger, in dependence on the detection of a shift, forwarding of the image information or the evaluation of the image information by the evaluator for determining measurement results;
wherein the trigger serves to detect a suitable or optimum point of time for the forwarding or for a further detailed evaluation of the image information;
wherein the apparatus for three-dimensional measurement of an object is implemented using a hardware apparatus, or using a computer, or using a combination of a hardware apparatus and a computer, and wherein the circuitry comprising the trigger includes analog circuitry, digital circuitry, microprocessor based circuitry or a combination thereof.
