1000 m Laser Rangefinder with Angle Compensation
Time-of-flight laser ranging: a 905 nm pulse travels at c, reflects, and returns — the elapsed nanoseconds convert to millimetre-accurate distance in real time.
Laser rangefinders exploit the constancy of the speed of light to measure distance with precision impossible by acoustic or optical triangulation at field ranges. The device emits a collimated 905 nm class 1 laser pulse, times the round-trip to picosecond resolution, and divides by 2c to give range. Angle compensation mode applies the cosine correction (true horizontal distance = measured range × cos θ) automatically — essential for shooting uphill or downhill where uncorrected range would overestimate the horizontal component.
