Really nice article and the author explains and illustrates it well.
The thing that amazes me is that we have cheap 'clocks' able to measure the amount of time it takes light to travel a few yards at most. Light travels at 299,792,458 meters per second, so that requires clock speeds accurate in billionths-of-a-second....

Actually, that was a really good article with very clear illustrations that showed things I'd only read about before, but clearly "saw" and better understood thanks to those images.
So now I'm thinking the rangefinder works just like my sonar "fish finder" but without water and the scrolling chart, but some of the same issues/challenges remain -- beam spread, different bottoms (distances) shown as "one" target, interference (fish, bait, thermocline) or target size, etc.
I had a mid-priced range finder. A 275ish dollar Bushnell. Worked really good until you got in the woods. The 4 or 5X optics were really dark, and it would give false readings on every dang tree between me and what I was rangeing, even in the close 50 to 100 yard range.
