The invention relates to a laser receiver (10) designed for locating a laser beam (22) relative to the laser receiver (10) It comprises a laser light photo sensor (1) providing an electrical output signal when illuminated by a reference laser beam (22). The laser receiver (10) has an acceleration sensor (4) providing a signal indicating a movement of the laser receiver together with a movement direction and an acceleration of this movement. The laser receiver (10) further comprises a circuitry (3) connected to said photo sensor (1) and to the acceleration sensor (4) designed to compute and correlate the signals of photo sensor (1) and acceleration sensor (4) and to weight the information derived from the acceleration sensor (4) and to initiate an automated action adapt to said weighted information. The invention also relates to a laser system for generating a laser light plane, the system comprising a laser for emitting a laser beam (22) and the laser receiver (10) according to the invention, and to a method using the laser receiver (10) according to the invention.
