A rangefinder is an optical device measures distance from the observer to a target,
for the purposes of surveying, determining focus in photography, or accurately
aiming a weapon.
Some use active methods to measure (such as sonar,
laser, or radar); which uses a laser beam in order to determine the distance to
a reflective object. The most common form of laser range-finder operates on the
time of flight principle by sending a laser pulse in a narrow beam towards the
object and measuring the time taken by the pulse to be reflected off the target
and returned to the sender.
other devices measure
distance using trigonometry usually use a set of known distances or target
sizes to make the measurement.
