Abstract:
Method and system for measuring outermost dimensions of a vehicle positioned at an inspection station and having top, front, back and side exterior surfaces are provided. The system includes a plurality of 3-D or depth sensors supported around and above the vehicle at the inspection station. Each of the sensors has a field of view so that one of the exterior surfaces of the vehicle is in one of the fields of view. Each sensor includes a set of radiation sensing elements which detect projected radiation reflected from its exterior surface to obtain sensor data. At least one processor processes the sensor data from each of the sensors to obtain a virtual 3-D model of the vehicle. Control logic is employed to obtain measurements of outermost dimensions of the vehicle based on the 3-D model.
