    A precise focusing can shorten the measuring time and improve the accuracy. Measurement of high accuracy requests precise focusing as well as continuous measures. (2) Obstacles Measurement can be implemented if the staff is blocked less than 30%. Even if the crosshair center is blocked, as long as the field of view is blocked less than 30%, measurement still can be implemented.
