1. An optical measuring apparatus comprising:

  • a light emitter configured to emit a laser beam;

    a scanner configured to convert the laser beam to a plurality of scanning laser beams, the scanner further configured to direct the plurality of scanning laser beams toward a measurement region where an object to be measured is placed;

    a polarizing plate configured to allow passage of only a scanning laser beam of the plurality of scanning laser beams from the scanner orthogonally directed to an emission direction of the laser beam and an axis direction of the object to be measured;

    a photoreceiver configured to receive the scanning laser beam that has passed through the measurement region and the polarizing plate; and

    a dimension calculator configured to calculate a dimension of the measured object from a pattern of light and dark in a scanning direction, the pattern being obtained by the photoreceiver.
