“…A primary obstacle in this scenario was ensuring laser safety, given that the system operated in real-time with an optical power exceeding 5 mW of continuous power. A third and final solution, thoroughly investigated in this study, revolves around the utilization of an optical triangulator [ 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 ]. This approach strikes a delicate balance between complexity, cost, and performance.…”
