3D scanning refers to the high-tech technology that integrates optical, mechanical, electrical and computer technologies, and is mainly used to scan the spatial shape, structure and color of the object to obtain the spatial coordinates of the surface of the object.
3D scanning technology is mainly used in the following aspects:
1. Reverse Engineering (RE)/Rapid Prototyping (RP)
2. Scan the physical object and establish CAD data; or scanning models to create 3D data for inspecting the surface of the part;
3. Production line quality control and shape detection of product components;
4. Entry and electronic display of cultural relics;
5. Orthodontic treatment of teeth and deformities;
6. Face recognition, etc.
3D Scanning Classification:
1. Structured light scanner
2. Laser scanner
