Accurate 3D data from indoor environments play a crucial role in construction, indoor navigation, real estate management, and many more applications. Mobile scanning systems, including simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) and mobile devices equipped with LIDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) and modern techniques like Matterport, provide efficient means to create virtual models of measured objects (and even generate point clouds). However, it is essential to note that the quality of these methods often needs...

Due to usage, handling, and improper storage, measuring tapes undergo changes in their condition over time. For this reason, regular inspection is necessary to ensure the desired quality of results, aiming to verify the accuracy of the tape and its usability in practice. During the calibration of measuring tapes, the position of the scale divisions on the tape is evaluated using a device known as a horizontal comparator. This device consists of a linear base on which a carriage with evaluating equipment, in our ca...
