Patent ID: 8203608

Claim:
A method for the optical surveying of a surface of a measured object ( 2 ) by means of an image recording system ( 3 ) in order to record an image, said image recording system ( 3 ) including a camera chip ( 7 ), said method comprising the following steps: the measured object and the image recording system ( 3 ) are moved relative to each other in one scanning direction at one scanning speed, at least one component ( 8 , 12 ) of the image recording system ( 3 ), said component defining the position of the captured image relative to the measured object ( 2 ), or the measured object ( 2 ), is imparted with a superimposition movement during which an image recording interval (V) is generated, during the image recording interval (V) the speed of the relative movement between the measured object ( 2 ) and the camera chip ( 7 ) for receiving the image is, at least for a short time, distinctly lower than the scanning speed or is zero.
