Claim One:
1. A method of determining three dimensional coordinates of an object, the method comprising: determining a first set of three dimensional coordinates for a plurality of points on the object with a scanner device, the scanner device being configured to emit and receive a structured light for determining the first set of three dimensional coordinates of points on a surface; accessing with a processor an inspection plan for the object, the inspection plan including a plurality of features to be inspected with a remote probe; mapping with the processor the plurality of points onto a computer aided design model; associating with the processor the plurality of features with the plurality of points mapped onto a computer aided design model; projecting a visible light with the scanner device proximate a first feature of the plurality of features; contacting a sensor on the remote probe to at least one first point on the first feature on the object; determining a first position and orientation of the remote probe with the scanner device, the remote projecting having a plurality of illuminated lights, the plurality of illuminated lights having at least three non-collinear illuminated lights; and determining with the scanner device a second set of three dimensional coordinates of the at least one first point on the first feature on the object.
