This technology has already brought about a sea change in the way components are designed, inspected and produced.

After some napkin math, a motorized laser mount as above will have some nasty sine wave like effects if you take pictures in between steps of a rotating 3d scanner. Be aware, that 3d scanning ...

This 3D-printed confocal laser scanning microscope is a good example of an instrument for measuring really small stuff. As [Zachary Tong] points out, confocal scanning microscopy uses a clever ...

Liang Pan, professor of mechanical engineering, leads the team developing the technology that allows 3D nanoprinting at lower laser intensities without the need for femtosecond lasers. It does not ...

FARO Technologies Inc. has launched the Leap ST hand-held 3D scanner. The metrology-grade tool measures and verifies a ...
