	We are looking for a company which makes an optical scanner.
We are building a ranger which makes range images using a camera and
a plane of light which must be scanned over an object.  We already
have a laser source and optics which transforms the beam into a plane
of light.  The optical scanner should be a mirror controlled by a step-
ping motor or a galvanometer movement. We built our own in a previous
model, but we now require greater precision.  Any information about
companies which sell things like this would be greatly appreciated.
	Please email responses to daniel@cvl.umd.edu, thanks.
