An international company and global leader in business aviation service has turned to 3D modeling of the plane’s interior to design, produce, and assemble Boeing 737 BBJ2 furnishings.

The project consisted of 2 steps: conducting a full scan of the plane interior and creating 3D model files. To complete the 1st step, a team of Creaform [...]

21st century advanced technology to virtually reproduce prehistoric animals at Canadian Museum of Nature in Ottawa…fascinating! Besides, the project won an international award!
“However, the key element is the bones of an animal’s skeleton. That is where Paul Bloskie comes in, as he puts the bones on a special laser scanner which creates a high [...]

This is amazing what passionnate and brillant undergraduate engineering students can do when they put their mind to something (in this case, the creation a hybrid of a Volkswagen Jetta and a Yamaha motorcycle).

Last August, we launched the Put Us to the Test 2010 challenge. The 3 most challenging entries shared more than $25,000 in 3D engineerng services. Here are the highlights:
Nothing is Impossible – The Walking Horse $20,000 grand prize winning project
The main goal of the “Walking Horse” ideaman Benjamin Julian was to build a mechanical horse that [...]

– We’ve come across this article on yet another very interesting application of 3D laser scanning technology – in archaeology.

Academics at Dundee University have helped recreate the face of a Viking woman whose skeleton was unearthed in York more than 30 years ago. Read the complete article.

I am really happy when I receive projects completed by users of the Handyscan 3D scanner. Artist Rino Côté created an aluminum sculpture in the shape of a tree branch for Sherbrooke University in Canada. For Rino Côté, this branch represents lightness and vitality. It is full of life and promise for the future, much [...]

ACCURACY AND RESOLUTION IMPROVEMENT
When we think of future laser scanning, first thing that comes in mind is an accuracy and resolution improvement. But this is not the big deal…
 First parameters to consider are from an engineering point of view and are limited by price and engineering capabilities. Structural rigidity of the scanner itself has virtually [...]
