Abstract
This article presents several fundamental formulas for ray tracing in optical systems used in 3D optical scanners. A procedure for numerical modeling of one-mirror and two-mirror optical systems is presented, and the calculation of positioning and accuracy of the laser beam spot in a detection plane is carried out. Finally, a point position and accuracy depending on a transit time is evaluated.
