Patent attributes
A measuring system for dimensionally measuring an object, comprising an object carrier, a plurality of optical markers, which are arranged at the object carrier and/or the object, and a first sensor for a tactile, optical and/or tomographic scanning of the object. The first sensor generates a first measuring signal. A second optical sensor captures a spatial orientation and position of the object with the help of optical markers. The second sensor generates a second measuring signal that contains information relating to the position and spatial orientation of the optical markers. The second sensor is connected to the first sensor via a mechanically rigid connection. An evaluation unit is configured to determine, from the second measuring signal, the position and spatial orientation of the object relative to the first sensor and to determine, from the first measuring signal, a geometry of the object.
