Patent ID: 7065461

Claim:
A point cloud measuring system for automatically and accurately measuring point clouds, the system comprising a plurality of client computers and an application server, wherein: the client computers are for providing user interfaces enabling users to communicate with the application server; and to perform needed measuring operations for point clouds; and the application server performs the function of measuring point clouds, the application server comprising: a library, comprising: a point cloud fitting module for fitting point clouds selected by a user through a user interface of any one of the client computers into an object; a measurement object creating module for creating a measurement object according to objects selected by the user; a measuring module for measuring the measurement object and obtaining measurement data on the measurement object; and a measurement data outputting module for outputting the measurement data, and determining whether the measurement data meet with design requirements by comparing the measurement data with design dimensions of the measurement object. a measurement step storing module for storing measurement steps of measuring the measurement object in a database, in order to make the steps of measuring the measurement object available for measuring a same measurement object in future; and an error detecting module for determining in real time whether any error occurs when utilizing any of the modules of the library, and advising the user of an error that occurs.
