Summary

[edit]

As students from Ngee Ann Polytechnic, we are researching about the advances of the laser range finder, which is an application that uses Laser/s to find the distance of an object a few 100 meters away. It is to be as accurate as possible. Being Light and portable. During our research, we've found plenty of such products online and in local electronic stores. Most use infra-red lasers to do the work, because of the high speeds of the laser and the ability to be made compact. There are 2 techniques on which the laser range finder is run by, the first is the "Flight Principle”:It sends a Laser pulse in a narrow beam towards the object and measuring the time taken by the pulse to be reflected off the target and returned to the sender. The Second is the "triangulation method" which is almost never used in the portable versions. As Final Year Students in Ngee Ann Polytechnic (Singapore), we wanted to give a glimpse Of the Laser Range Finder in Action, using the triangulation method (which tanks use).

The above is our design and in 3 months time, we will upload the full functional application in Action.
