3D SCANNER

3D Scanner is a device to analysis a real world object or environment to collect data on its shape and possibly its appearance. The collected data can then be used to construct digital three dimensional (3D) model. 

The purpose of a 3D scanner is usually to create a 3D model. This 3D model consists of geometric samples on the surface of the subject. These points can then be used to design the shape of the subject (a process called reconstruction). If color information is collected at each point, then the colors on the surface of the subject can also be determined.

3D scanners share several similarities with cameras. Like most cameras, they have a cone-like field of view, and like cameras, they can only collect information about surfaces that are not obscured. While a camera collects color information about surfaces within its field of view, a 3D scanner collects distance information about surfaces within its field of view. The "picture" produced by a 3D scanner describes the distance to a surface at each point in the picture. This allows the three dimensional position of each point in the picture to be identified.

For most situations, a single scan will not produce a complete model of the subject. Multiple scans, even hundreds, from many different directions are usually required to obtain information about all sides of the subject. These scans have to be brought into a common reference system, a process that is usually called alignment or registration, and then merged to create a complete 3D model. This whole process, going from the single range map to the whole model, is usually known as the 3D scanning pipeline.

Taking quality as our prime concern, we are also involved in offering best quality, high resolution and accurate 3D scanning services. We undertake turnkey 3D scanning projects for civil constructions also.
