3D Optical Digitizers
Patterned light is projected onto subjects; deformation is recorded by an off-set camera. Triangulation calculates a 3D mesh. Fast, accurate and adaptable for human portraiture.
3D Laser Scanners
A laser line moves over subjects' surfaces; an off-set camera records deformation. Triangulation calculates a 3D mesh. Slower, but higher accuracy enabled for static objects.
3D Mechanical Digitizers
Mechanical arms physically probe objects, guided by the user; points are recorded on the surface of subjects. Intuitive but slow. Unsuitable for delicate objects.
3D Scanning software
View, edit and export scan data efficiently and accurately. Triangulation, registration and merging algorithms, polygon editing, CAD conversion, model export for web viewing.

rapidformXO Redesign is the first software
solution that allows users to go from 3D scan data to a fully parametric CAD
model. While traditional 3D scan data processing software has focused solely
on improving the tools for optimizing polygon mesh models or generating high
quality NURBS surfaces from 3D scan data, the needs of those who require parametric
CAD models from 3D scan data have been largely ignored.
rapidformXO Redesign addresses the limitations of existing
3D scan data processing software by complementing its mesh modeling and NURBS
surfacing capabilities with newly developed CAD modeling capabilities, providing
users with the tools to go from 3D scan data to a parametric CAD model. The
combination of these capabilities enables users to create parametric CAD models
that contain both prismatic and freeform features.
Creating a parametric CAD model from 3D scan data allows users
to fully realize the value of 3D scanning. rapidformXO Redesign features a set
of tools designed specifically to address the unique requirements of reverse
engineering, ensuring that the final redesigned model is built within user-defined
tolerances.
How is rapidformXO Redesign different?
rapidformXO Redesign employs a completely new approach to reverse engineering
and processing 3D scan data. Rather than simply improving the existing methods
of creating static models from 3D scan data, rapidformXO Redesign empowers
users to create parametric CAD models from 3D scan data while utilizing the
design process and user interface of popular CAD applications. The innovative
design process and user interface of rapidformXO Redesign provide benefits
that increase the productivity of users.
The design process and user interface of rapidformXO
Redesign reduce the learning curve by utilizing the CAD modeling skills that
most engineers already possess. In addition to its reduced learning curve,
the design process of rapidformXO Redesign leads to increased time savings
when compared to the surface fitting methods of existing 3D scanning software.
The accuracy of the redesigned model is ensured to be built within user defined
allowable tolerances through the use of the Accuracy Analyzer, which provides
real time deviation analyses throughout the design process.
When should I use rapidformXO
Redesign?
While the main differentiator of rapidformXO Redesign remains its ability
to create parametric CAD models from 3D scan data, XOR is a comprehensive
software solution that also provides users with the tools to create an optimized
polygon mesh model or high quality NURBS surface model that can be used for
rapid prototyping, FEA and machining. The polygon optimization and NURBS surfacing
tools are also important tools that can be integrated with the CAD modeling
capabilities of rapidformXO Redesign for the creation of parametric models
that contain freeform features.
