2. Laser tracker - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_tracker

   The accuracy of laser trackers is of the order of 0.025 mm over a distance of several metres. [1] Some examples of laser tracker applications are to align aircraft wings during assembly [2] and to align large machine tools. [3] To take measurements the technician first sets up a laser tracker on a tripod with an unobstructed view of the object ...

   VIEW Engineering's Logo, circa 1976 VIEW Engineering's Logo, circa 1996. While working as a physicist at Hughes Aircraft Company, Dick Hubach recognized a need for automated dimensional measurement systems, when he discovered that the cost to verify the correct manufacture of some aerospace components actually exceeded the cost to manufacture those components. [3]

4. Laser beam profiler - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_beam_profiler

   Laser machine shops care a lot about the M 2 parameter of their lasers because the beams will focus to an area that is M 4 times larger than that of a Gaussian beam with the same wavelength and D4σ waist width before focusing; in other words, the fluence scales as 1/M 4. The rule of thumb is that M 2 increases as the laser power increases.

5. Coordinate-measuring machine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate-measuring_machine

   A coordinate-measuring machine (CMM) is a device that measures the geometry of physical objects by sensing discrete points on the surface of the object with a probe. Various types of probes are used in CMMs, the most common being mechanical and laser sensors, though optical and white light sensors do exist.

6. List of measuring instruments - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_measuring_instruments

   In the past, a common time measuring instrument was the sundial. Today, the usual measuring instruments for time are clocks and watches. For highly accurate measurement of time an atomic clock is used. Stopwatches are also used to measure time in some sports.
