Rotating Laser Cavity Measurement System

The patent replaces mechanical disassembly with an optical measurement system. A laser scanner emits coherent light through the wing structure to capture internal cavity geometry without physical contact or disassembly, substituting mechanical intrusion with optical non-contact measurement.

The patent introduces coherent light as an intermediary to penetrate the wing structure and capture internal cavity information. The laser scanner acts as a mediator that transmits measurement data through the wing material without requiring physical access or disassembly.

The patent replaces mechanical measurement tools that require physical access with an optical scanning system. The laser scanner uses coherent light to capture internal cavity geometry, eliminating the need to disassemble the wing and thereby removing the risk of mechanical damage.

The patent creates a digital 3D model (copy) of the internal cavity geometry through laser scanning. This virtual replica captures all necessary measurement data without requiring physical access to or manipulation of the actual cavity, eliminating damage risk while maintaining measurement accuracy.

The patent performs measurement verification before the wing is assembled into the aircraft. The laser scanner captures internal cavity dimensions and compares them against design specifications, providing preliminary verification that ensures safety before final assembly and flight.

The patent implements a feedback mechanism where measured internal cavity dimensions are compared against design tolerances. The system provides real-time verification feedback to ensure manufacturing compliance, allowing corrective action before assembly and ensuring safety through documented measurement verification.
