3D scanning system Traceable 3D®

for measuring armlaserfixed

In the last few decades, 3D reality capture has become the preferred method of capturing the as-built condition of any physical asset. Millions of bits of data are converted into 3D point clouds, creating an accurate virtual representation of what was scanned. But even a modest project can generate hundreds, perhaps thousands of scans, each one requiring point cloud registration. Not only must scans be taken, registered and aligned the first time, but throughout an asset’s lifecycle. It’s in exactly these situations — repeat scanning and repeat alignment — where target-less or cloud-to-cloud registration can run into challenges. Traceable 3D de-silos data and brings it into a single compatible coordinate system through target-based scanning with specialized mounted targets. It provides a fixed, but re-locatable, anchor point, enabling repeatable scan alignment and ensuring that even the most minute changes in a physical asset are captured. Business Value Save time and improve productivity The technology works with all types of surveying, scanning and metrology equipment. As the need for 3D scanning increases, users can position reference points and update the point cloud as each new scan comes in, documenting even the smallest changes in design layout. This speed and accuracy provides project stakeholders a better overview of the project at hand as changes are implemented. Data from the fieldwork is digitally processed, analyzed and generates new points to be set out. As the project evolves and new information becomes available, this data is digitally processed, analyzed and synchronized.
