Next week DDI President Michael Raphael will be presenting at the Inside 3D Printing Conference and Expo in Chicago. You can hear Michael from 4:15-5:45 on July 10. Keep reading below for a preview of his presentation.
The XYZs of 3D Scanning: Making Reality Digital
Like 3D printing, the technology for 3D
scanning has evolved dramatically over the past 20 years. Today there
are dozens of different scanning technologies, scores of different
scanning systems, and hundreds of amazing scanning applications.
Scanning has become critical in the fields of aerospace, automotive,
architecture, and for many other industrial applications. As the digital
world continues to drive demand for 3D content, 3D scanning (also known
as ‘reality capture’) will play an increasingly important role in the
accurate documentation of historic artifacts and sites, monuments and
sculpture, and even forensic investigations. Using a series of
compelling case studies, this presentation will highlight the evolution,
current capabilities, and future possibilities for realizing the
potential of 3D scanning. Discussion will also include background and
observations on the business of 3D scanning and clues to leveraging the
explosion of 3D printing as well as other downstream design, analysis,
and visualization demands.
