Understanding 3D Imaging Systems

3D imaging systems capture and record a digital representation of the geometry and appearance of the
surface of an object. This digital representation of the physical artifact is then processed in order to extract
useful information from the raw data and finally communicate the results that will be used in a decision
making process. There are many contributors to the measurement uncertainty in a 3D imaging system. In
this seminar, 3D imaging technology will be presented from a metrologist and system designer perspective.
The seminar will emphasize manufacturing applications.
Attend this session to learn:
? the capabilities of 3D imaging systems
? the limitations of the technology
? contributors to measurement uncertainty
? how to define your needs and requirements
? how to characterize 3D imaging systems
? how to establish best practices
Presented by Marc-Antoine Drouin and Guy Godin of the National Research Council (NRC). Marc-Antoine
is a Research Officer with the Image Analysis and Graphics team of the NRC and associate professor in
the Department of Computer Science at the Université de Sherbrooke. He joined NRC full time in 2007,
working on a variety of 3D imaging systems. Guy is a Principal Research Officer with the Image Analysis
and Graphics team of the NRC. Since joining NRC in 1989, he has worked on all aspects of the 3D
imaging pipeline, from acquisition to processing to visualization.
