Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of optical instruments, and in particular relates to a method for processing, shaping and modulating a hollow retroreflector. Background technique
[0002] At present, most of the prisms used in conjunction with optical measuring instruments (such as total stations) are corner cube prisms. A glass pyramid is installed inside the prism to reflect the distance measuring laser beam emitted by the measuring instrument. Reflected back into the measuring instrument in a path parallel to the incident light, the distance between the measuring instrument and the prism is calculated based on the travel time or phase difference of the light. Since the corner cube is a solid glass body, the distance measuring beam will be converted back and forth in the two media of air and glass, accompanied by light reflection and refraction, which will lead to low measurement accuracy and a decrease in the light intensity returned to...
