2012 Olympics: How 3D Scanning is helping Australia’s Kayak team
By: Stéphane Auclair
27 Jul 2012What do Olympic Kayakers and 3D data have in common? The ability to make custom-fit shapes to allow kayak slalomers become world beaters.
Olympic sport keeps pushing athletes to find new and nuanced ways to condition their bodies. The same is true with their equipment. Engineers continually look for new refinements that propel the competition to [...]

3D scanning a cavern for a virtual museum!
By: Émilie Girard-Tremblay
10 Nov 2010When we launched the blog 1 year ago, our goal was to share information about 3D technology with the community, but also hear about what you are up to.
I’m glad to share with you Lauri Põldre’s 3D scanning project. His company, 3D Technologies R&D, scanned the Piusa Cavern. Located in the south-eastern part of Estonia, [...]
Creation process of a tree branch with 3D scanning technology!

3 Nov 2010I 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 [...]

Check this out! Louis-Philippe Gendron, Computer Graphics Artist at Creaform, has produced a short animated film featuring a full-size 3D scan model of the Inukshuk that served as inspiration to the creator of the logo for the 2010 Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver.
This reproduction of an Inuit landmark, which is quite impressive (18 ft. or [...]

19 Feb 2010ACCURACY 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 [...]
Remember in september when we scanned the HTT plethore.
They published a video on youtube, have a look.
Everybody knows I’ve been a fan of the iPhone from the very beginning. However, I was only able to treat myself with “the marvel” a few short months ago… Why did I wait so long? It would probably be inappropriate to discuss this issue here since it involves our president… In all honesty, my desire [...]
