I have 2 questions:
1- how tough is building an electronic distance measurement device (a rather small one such as the one's used in land surveying total stations) which for instance can indicate distance of a particular point 1 km away? (our device should fire a laser beam towards the point that is already highlighted by a refelector and calculate the travel time of the beam).
2- how tough is building an electronic angle measurement device (a rather small one such as the one's used in land surveying total stations)?
is it practical to build the above at home with off shelf tools.
To summarize, I want to know how practical is building the electronics of a simple land surveying total station at home, given that one possesses relevant electronic knowledge.
