When creating animation that has the dependability that manufacturing lines require, how do you get accurate data that transcribes exactly to a digital form? An artist’s imagination can only be so exact, whether you’re creating a simulation, animation, or an accurate model.

3D scanning using laser technology enables reverse engineering data to be accurately transcribed and translated to a digital means, resulting in animation that has the exact specifications of the real product. When you have the data through digital means, it can be better transcribed to an animated form, perfect for accurate depictions in computer simulations that reflect the exact nature of the objects.

3D scanning is the most accurate way to guarantee the exact data is imported properly into your software, ensuring the legitimacy of any computer tests. It’s the most accurate way to conduct reverse engineering, delivering the exact digital specifications so you can remake a product through animation with a realistic grasp of its complexity and modifications. It takes away any judgment calls with data that exactly matches the model you’re replicating.

It’s a technology that has been widely used in everything from video games to cartoons to computer simulations. It’s enabled realistic animation in everything from Disney to Pixar. The laser scan creates a dense cloud of millions of data points, importing the data to a CAD software which converts the triangles of the character’s surface down to a thousandth of an inch. The data is then captured and used in animation programs, creating accurate animation that exactly reflects the constructs of the item or character being scanned.

By creating a computer form that exactly represents the object, a complete and accurate 3d model can be made within seconds. Rather than being a replacer of creativity, the technology increases the accuracy of the artist’s imagination, beneficial for everything from a computer simulation to digital animation to Hollywood special effects.

The human eye is essentially unreliable. Laser scanning delivers data directly from the dimensions of the actual object, so there are no judgment calls to be made. Computer simulations are only as accurate as the data that comprises their tests. Lasers enable a direct accuracy for movies, cartoons and video games, revolutionizing our world by presenting the digital world as realistically as the physical realm.
