Abstract:
1. A system for tridimensional cartography of a structural surface, comprising: two wires extendable along the structural surface while being spaced from each other so as to define a reference surface in front of the structural surface; a measuring unit comprising a laser arrangement configured to project two distinct light planes directed toward the structural surface and intersecting with the wires at an intersection, and a camera configured to capture images of the structural surface containing lines resulting from an intersection of the light planes with the structural surface and reference points resulting from the intersection of the light planes with the wires; a support assembly configured to controllably move the measuring unit in front of the structural surface so as to progressively scan the structural surface to be mapped; and a processing unit for processing the images captured by the camera, the processing unit having:
