Abstract

A mobile measurement system for three-dimensional optical measurement of vehicles and vehicle parts, includes a measurement auxiliary device which can be arranged on the vehicle or vehicle part with repeat accuracy, and a mobile measurement trolley on which a robot is arranged, which carries at least one measurement sensor, and which further has a coupling apparatus for mechanically coupling to the measurement auxiliary device, enabling positioning of the measurement trolley relative to the measurement auxiliary device, and thus relative to the vehicle or vehicle part, with repeat accuracy.
