Abstract:A precise parallel laser line scanning system has been developed to assess the depth of out‐of‐plane structural defects on concrete surfaces. This system comprises a digital camera, dual line laser diodes, and positioning rigid arms that create a triangulation‐based setup. Laser lines are distorted when projected onto an out‐of‐plane defect. A new image processing algorithm has been devised to extract depth information from the distorted laser strips. Parallel laser lines are used to ensure that imaged laser s… Show more
