Abstract. This research focuses on the characterization of the metrology of Optical 3D Coordinate Measurement Systems (O3DCMS). The focus is set on the identification and execution of the procedure indicated by the currently active technical standards related to industrial O3DCMS, for their metrological assessment, objective comparison, and performance tracking. This work leads to the implementation of an ad hoc software for the execution of the standard tests by the ISO 10360-13 standard. The implemented software application is employed in a real-case scenario for evaluating the performances of an industrial 3D scanner based on structured light. The specific hardware components to be assessed are two light sources of the active stereoscopic vision system, named Digital Light Projectors (DLP). The case study applies the procedures and metrics indicated by the active standards to objectively compare two alternative hardware design of the system under test. This results in the identification of the most performing hardware configuration, allowing the selection of the best system design, basing on objective metrological parameters.
