AUTOMATED 4 AXIS ADAYfIVE SCANNING WITH THE DIGIBOTICS LASER DIGITIZER

The DIGIBOT 3D Laser Digitizer is a high performance 3D input device which combines laser ranging technology, personal computing, and Microsoft Windows in an attractive desktop package. With its full four-axis scanning capabilities, the DIGIBOT provides a simple, accurate, and quick way to copy or inspect complex, sculpted surfaces. The DIGIBOT provides an effective solution for many industrial and academic problems involving 3D design, inspection, replication, analysis, and visualization/animation. By measuring sequential points and producing a standard list of x/y/z coordinates, the DIGIBOT interfaces to any CAD/CAM/CAE imaging or animation software that reads 3D points, contours, or triangular facets.
