Abstract: A surveying device including a base defining a base axis, a support structure rotatable around the base axis and defining a rotation axis, a light emitting unit emitting light and a light receiving unit for detecting reflected light. A rotation unit is mounted on the support structure for emitting and receiving light in defined directions, wherein the rotation unit comprises a rotation body rotatable around the rotation axis including a scanning mirror arranged tilted relative to the rotation axis. An imaging unit for capturing an image of a scanning region is provided. The imaging unit comprises a camera fixedly arranged on the support structure, the rotation body comprises at least one reflecting deflecting surface assigned to the camera. The imaging unit and the rotation body are arranged so that the field of view comprises a defined field angle around the rotation axis.

Abstract: An image based opto-electronic encoder for a joint, the encoder having a reading head for the first part of the joint and an optical system, comprising a ball lens for the second part of the joint. The ball lens has a front surface transparent for measuring light and an at least partially reflective, structured back surface. The ball lens has -with respect to the measuring light- a refractive index of at least approximately two or an equal radially varying refractive index, such that a bundle of measuring light rays reflected inside the ball lens from a point of the back surface of the ball lens forms at least approximately a parallel bundle after getting refracted at the front surface of the ball lens. The reading head and the ball lens are rotatable relative to each other in at least two degrees of freedom.

Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention relate to a rotation unit for a surveying device, in particular a laser scanner for optically scanning an environment and such a surveying device. The surveying device has a rotation unit having a rotation mirror, for deflecting an emission light beam and a reception light beam, and a rotation body implemented as a cylinder having a on a beveled, free end. The rotation body is implemented as a hollow cylinder having a cylinder bottom and a beveled cylinder wall on its free end. The hollow cylinder is connected coaxially with respect to its cylinder axis in a rotationally-fixed manner to a motor-driven shaft via the cylinder bottom. The rotation mirror is fastened in the region of its free end to the cylinder wall of the hollow cylinder so it is supported thereby.
