Abstract

See full text

A system and method for measuring coordinate values of an environment is provided. The system includes a coordinate measurement scanner that includes a light source that steers a beam of light to illuminate object points in the environment, and an image sensor arranged to receive light reflected from the object points to determine coordinates of the object points in the environment. The system also includes one or more processors for performing a method that includes receiving a previously generated map of the environment and causing the scanner to measure a plurality of coordinate values as the scanner is moved through the environment, the coordinate values forming a point cloud. The plurality of coordinate values are registered with the previously generated map into a single frame of reference. A current map of the environment is generated based at least in part on the previously generated map and the point cloud.
