1. A measuring device for optical distance measurement, in particular a handheld measuring device, comprising:

  • a transmitting unit for emitting optical measurement radiation toward a target object;

    a receiving unit having a detection area for detecting optical measurement radiation returning from the target object; and

    an evaluation unit having at least one distance determining unit,wherein the detection area has a multiplicity of pixels,wherein each pixel has at least one light-sensitive element,wherein the evaluation unit is designed in such a way that detection signals of a plurality of pixels are forwarded to the at least one distance determining unit, on the basis of which the distance determining unit determines distance data which correlate with the distance between the measuring device and the target object, andwherein the evaluation unit is designed to determine a distance between the measuring device and the target object on the basis of an evaluation of distance data that were determined by the at least one distance determining unit.
