Abstract

A measuring device can have a scanning functionality for optical surveying of an environment, wherein the measuring device has a sensor comprising an assembly of microcells as a receiving surface and direction-dependent active sections of the receiver are defined depending on the transmission direction of the transmitted radiation, in order to adapt the active receiver surface to a varying imaging position of the received radiation.
