Abstract
A method of measuring a coating deposits a layer of coating on an object. A laser beam is projected on the layer of the coating. A reflection of the project laser beam is received by the laser sensor. From this information, the thickness of the layer of the coating on the object is determined. A value related to the thickness of the layer of the coating may then be compared to a desired value.
