Remote control measuring system
First Claim
1. A remote control measuring system, comprising:
- a measuring apparatus;
photographing means for photographing a measurement state of said measuring apparatus;
a control apparatus for controlling and driving said measuring apparatus corresponding to a measurement command and obtaining measured information of said measuring apparatus;
a host computer for transmitting the measurement command to said control apparatus corresponding to a measurement instruction and receiving the measured information and picture information obtained by said photographing means; and
a remote operating apparatus for transmitting the measurement instruction to said host computer through a communication network and receiving the measured information and the picture information therefrom,wherein said remote operating apparatus displays a measurement instruction screen, generates the measurement instruction in response to an input operation on the measurement instruction screen, transmits the measurement instruction to said host computer, and displays the measured information and the picture information received from said host computer on the measurement instruction screen.

Abstract
In a measuring room 1, a three-dimensional measuring apparatus 2 for measuring an object, a control apparatus 3 for driving and controlling the three-dimensional measuring apparatus 2, and a host computer 4 for transmitting a measurement instruction to the control apparatus 3 and receiving measured information therefrom are disposed. In an operating room 7, which is disposed at a remote place of the measuring room 1, a remote operating apparatus 9 and a CAD/CAT system 10 are disposed. The remote operating apparatus 9 is connected to a host computer 4 through a LAN. The CAD/CAT system 10 is linked to the remote operating apparatus 9. The remote operating apparatus 9 generates a measurement instruction in response to an input operation on a measurement instruction screen and transmits a part program generated by the CAD/CAT system 10 to the host computer 4. The remote operating apparatus 9 and the host computer 4 are communicated by a communication protocol of TCP/IP.
