Abstract:
A leveling system for identifying high and low areas of a surface relative to a reference plane to within a desired tolerance. A light source emits light in a level plane at a height above the reference plane. Several depth-indicator targets rest on the surface to be measured in an upright manner and are struck by the light in the level plane. Each of the depth-indicator targets indicates, based on color, whether the surface at that surface location is high, low, or level based on the location at which the light strikes the depth-indicator target. The color emitted by the target can be from a fluorescing layer of the target or light signals on the target controlled by a light-detecting receiver. A user can then quickly identify problem areas of the surface that need to be adjusted (e.g., raised or lowered).

Claim (Index 26):
The target of  claim 25 , further comprising a controller, the controller configured to receive a first signal containing a first parameter from the light receiver and a second signal containing a second parameter from the second light receiver and compare the first and second parameters and based on the comparison of the parameters to indicate whether the surface is level to within the desired tolerance;\n wherein a high ratio of the first parameter to the second parameter corresponds to the surface being within tolerance and a low ratio of the first parameter to the second parameter corresponds to the surface not being within tolerance.
