Abstract

A light receiver (1) designed to determine a position and/or orientation relative to a reference light (51) wherein the light receiver (1) comprises an elongated rod-shaped light receptor (2) with two ends (e1, e2), a light coupler (8), a light guide (7), and light detection means (6, 6a, 6b) at both ends (e1, e2) and a signal processor (12) to process the electric signals (S1, S2) of the detection means (6, 6a, 6b) and to determine the relative position and/or orientation by a comparative evaluation of the electric signals (S1, S2). The light guide (7) serves as a light propagation path (L) of defined length for light coupled into the light guide (7) by the light coupler (8) and the signal processor (12) determines the position and/or orientation based on light propagation speed of the reference light (51g) propagating in the light guide (7).
