Abstract :
The laser scanning system with three corner cubes to measure the position and heading of a vehicle is described. The high performance and short distance (50m class) equipment for a low speed vehicle was manufactured and evaluated. The system meets expected performance, or plus minus 2 cm position accuracy and plus minus 5 arc minutes heading accuracy.
