LASER SENSOR

The robot moves the sole in the x-y plane and then in the x-z plane. A routine that runs in the pc matches the points and calculates the XYZ profile

The laser sensor has the following characteristics: little spot but little sensibility to the color that does not allow to detect the absolute measure of the board of the sole. The soles is moved with the robot so that the laser sensor can detect the board of the sole; in this point there is a discontinuity of the measure detected by the laser sensor.
