HERE A NEW RANGING ALGORITHM IS DEVELOPED FOR THE CAMERA-LASER RANGEFINDER SYSTEM. THIS ALGORITHM COMBINES THE TRIANGULATION RANGING PRINCIPLE WITH THE CAMERA MODEL AND RESULTS IN THE COOPERATION OF THE TV CAMERA MEASURING LIGHT INTENSITIES AND THE LASER RANGEFINDER MEASURING DISTANCE. THIS RANGING STRUCTURE ESTABLISHES A ONE-TO-ONE CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN THE RANGE DATA OF 3-D OBJECTS AND THEIR 2-D IMAGE GRAY DATA. THEREFORE, THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF 2-D IMAGE PROCESSING CAN GUIDE THE DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS OF 3-D OBJECTS FROM THEIR RANGE DATA.
