Abstract
A three-dimensional machine vision scanner head for obtaining raw scan data from a target object and an integrated scan information extraction module that performs data reduction and passes to a controller selected summary target object scan information that is significant for automated control decisions in an industrial process. The scanner head contains a laser light emitter, reflected laser light detector and a communication interface for transmitting the target object scan information from the information extraction module to the controller.
