Patent ID: 7355724

Claim:
A three-dimensional measurement system for reconstitution of a real surface, comprising: a hardware part including a mobile two-axis assembly associated with a remote measurement device installed on a fixed part, each axis being equipped with an angular encoder restoring the direction of a sighting at any time, and a software part including a control part at the input and an acquisition part at the output, wherein the software part includes means for real time comparing two angular positions measured at a scanning profile set value, and wherein said software part further comprises means for superposing data obtained with said hardware part at said angular positions with an original CAD definition of a surface so as to obtain a reconstituted CAD definition of said surface; wherein said real surface is a surface of a real aircraft cockpit, and said original CAD definition is an original CAD definition of a surface of an aircraft cockpit such that said reconstituted CAD definition of the surface is a reconstitution of a CAD definition of an aircraft cockpit from a real cockpit.
