  • [PS1-3-2-4-4] Underwater Laser Scanning
    Underwater Laser Scanning is applied in deep-sea as well as in shallow water regions. The ranging distance is close range and the measurement principle relies on triangulation by laser light, comparable with structured-light-projection. More recently, companies started to develop Time-of-Flight (ToF) underwater laser scanners.
