More Information
Summary:This article presents the reflectance profilometer, which was designed and constructed in Institute of Optoelectronics of Military University of Technology. The reflectance profilometer is an optoelectronic device based on the laser remote sensing technique. The profilometer fundamental function is to define a shape of terrain along with an identification and analysis of elements of its coverage, characterized by high spatial resolution. The basis of its operating principles is to analyze the reflectance signals for laser radiation from the spectral range of 850-1550nm. The received information is visualized in 3D format, which allows for more accurate, precise and comprehensive way of presentation of the analyzed area model. The developed head is designed for use on unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV).
