Tech
laser line profile  --> detect peak of curve	COG methods
	the point of maximum intensity of the Gaussian can be determined using nonlinear interpolation techniques
speeding using FPGAs
limitations
	require that the camera system and laser light projector or more commonly the object to be imaged to be moved across the field of view of the system.
	where shiny specular surfaces need to be imaged, such systems may not prove effective.
