WHY A 3D SCANNING WEBINAR?
3D SCANNING
3D scanning is the process of obtaining or capturing the physical geometry of an object and converting it into a digital model. It offers a faster way of obtaining a digital model of a physically existing structure or environment.
A MATURED TECHNOLOGY
This technology has been around for a while (since 1960s), but recent advances has brought an increased relevance especially in "traditional" designs. The process captures the structural, surface design, depth and even colour of the scanned images.
3D SCANNING CATEGORIES
There are two kinds of 3D scanners; Contact based, and Non-Contact based scanners.
While the former entails the use of special sensing probes to touch the target objects physically, the non-contact scanners obtains its imagery via a distant sensing strategy. The contact based 3D scanners are known to be quite enormous, precise, and can even be used for transparent or reflective objects.
The non-contact based technology exists in forms like; photogrammetry, structured light, 3D laser scanners, and computerised tomography.
WEBINAR FOCUS
In our webinar, experts took turns to educate and inform attendees of the various novel areas where 3D scanning technology is penetrating. These application areas are; education, reverse engineering, quality control, prototyping and printing, design, research, plastic surgery, implants, anatomical surveys, dentistry, etc.
Interestingly, our lab is involved in a number of these areas. Kindly contact us for more information.
