General Mach Discussion / Laser trigger Output Family
« on: December 03, 2011, 12:01:48 AM »
Hi,
I have a Wenglor height sensor HN 24 MGV, that will give me a height measurement based on a 0-5v signal. I want to use this in conjunction with the laser trigger output family, to get a point cloud xyz measurement. I am thinking that I can log height (Z) by capturing the the signal from the Wenglor sensor, but need to combine this with x and y location. I use Rhino so once I have values I can input direct into Rhino to generate point cloud scans of any object that will fit on my machine. Does anybody have any ideas on how I can capture and combine.
