How to choose the right distance for 3D scanning
When 3D scanning, choosing the right distance to your object is crucial for the optimal measurement result. How to determine the right scanner position and how the 3D scanner itself aids in this decision, you get to read here.
How to use portable 3D scanning for the restoration of architecture
Historic architecture is often seen as an important part of our cultural heritage. Preserving it for future generations is a vital task. One way to achieve this goal is through restoration. It involves the process of returning a building to its original state by repairing or reconstructing damaged or missing parts. 3D scanning technology supports in this case with the collection of data necessary for the rework of hundreds years worth of history.
3D scanning with ATOS Q in the medical sector
3D metrology is already being used in medical technology. Be it for the production of precisely fitting prostheses or also models to illustrate physical conditions. The goal is the generation of data which can then be used for educational purposes, e.g. in form of augmented reality.
CT metrology: computed tomography in industry
Modern CT metrology has become a vital tool in industrial quality assurance. Although computed tomography is most commonly associated with medical diagnostics, industrial CT metrology allows for high-precision, non-destructive inspection and measurement of components and assemblies. In this article, we discuss how CT metrology works, its various industrial applications, as well as the benefits and drawbacks of using this method.
