Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve measuring accuracy of a road surface by moving the principal points of lenses in video cameras so that a measuring range is put in the surface where the image pickup surface is divided into approximately the number of video cameras. CONSTITUTION:At the time of measuring the quantity of roughness of the road surface 10, laser beam 15 projected from a laser tube 11 are enlarged by a laser scanner 12 and these are projected on the road surface 10 and picked up on image via the lenses 16 in the 1st and the 2nd video cameras 13 and 14. Normally, in case the video cameras, etc., are used, these are used so that optical axes 18 of the lenses 16 are positioned on the center of the image pickup surface 17 as shown in (a) of figure. But the lenses 16 are moved respectively so that the measuring range is put in 17a and 17b dividing the image pickup surface 17 into two and the contact points (b) and (c) of the lenses are deviated and the image pickup surface 17 is imaged, by which the images divided into two by a monitor can be caught.
