Material handling devices operation enyironment 3D-type presentation based on laser scanning systems

The paper is focusing on the material handling devices operation environment 3D-type presentation based on laser scanning systems and point of cloud data approach. Main attention was fixed at overhead travelling cranes and their operation space zone with determined and random character factor influences the workspace spatial volume. Supervising the transport means workspace get possibility mark out the optimum grade-separated trajectory for transferring cargo in automatic mode. On the base 3D type seans was generated digital model of the plant/laboratory hall, where crane has been installed. In the next step the same laboratory hall and their characteristic points was measure with the help geodetic device and compare with laser scanning data. Other part of the paper is presenting a methodology for 3D type object scanning with use surface segmentation for reduce the number of points given by the industrial scan objects like a hall where an overhead travelling crane is operating. This procedure replace traditional 3D type scanner rotation mode with the planar mode of scanning. In this case the laser beam examines the object only in one direction, it is ideal for scan the workspacefor the transport means with Cartesian operation environment and opens kinematics chain.
