Handheld 3-D scanner

Automotive Design & Production, Dec, 2007

Z Corp.'s (www.zcorp.com) handheld, self-orienting ZScanner 800 offers five-times the resolution and more than double the accuracy of its first-generation scanners. Equipped with a third high-definition camera for improved scanning resolution with accuracy within 40 mm, the scanner can detect changes in surface height down to 50 mm. An automatic multi-resolution function self calibrates the resolution level based on the type of surface being scanned.
