3Dscannen
3Dscannen is the process of capturing the shape and appearance of real objects or scenes to create digital three‑dimensional representations. The results are typically a point cloud, a polygonal mesh, or a textured model, stored in formats such as PLY, LAS, OBJ, or STL. These models can be used for visualization, measurement, manufacturing, or archiving.
Scanning methods fall into two broad categories: active and passive. Active scanners emit energy and measure
Typical workflow includes planning, data acquisition, and data processing. Data from multiple scans are aligned (registration),
Applications include cultural heritage documentation, industrial metrology, architecture, product design, film and game production, medical visualization,
