AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing surveying targets suffer from inaccuracies due to relative placement of reflective surfaces and LEDs, leading to measurement errors in landscape surveying applications.

Method used

A target design with retroreflectors arranged around a central axis and light emitting elements positioned within the inner circumference of the reflector, allowing apparent light sources to appear behind the retroreflectors, reducing aiming errors and improving accuracy.

Benefits of technology

Enhances the accuracy of vertical and horizontal aiming by surveying instruments, reducing measurement errors and improving the reliability of landscape survey data.
