3d scanning has wide applications in construction, architecture, industrial product manufacturing, entertainment, forensics etc.
The advancement in 3d scanning technology is helping the processes of measurements, visualizing and analysis in the above fields to be more faster, more accurate, more reliable and a lot hassle-free. the modern advancements also ensures flexibility to export and import 3d scanned models across almost all the 3d platforms available today.
In case of finished building, 3d scanning is the easiest and the fastest method to get floor area, volume and wall area of a structure. It will make any estimation associated with the building lot easier, precise as well as faster.
With 3d scanning, we can allot the entire modelling of the real world site to a 3d laser scanning device. All it takes for the device is a few minutes or few hours based on the volume of the building or structure. Plus the most complex structure can be captured with great precision through a 3d scanning device.
For even the landscaping needs 3d models are helpful as the 3d scan provides data of the levels of different part on the ground to the order of centimeters. It will thus make landscape designing or planning easier with the accurate level data.
Not only in crash cases, but also in saving the crime scene and and preserving it to a digital medium for later analysis is also one great application of 3d scanning in forensics.
In the case of industries where large size machinery parts are manufactured, 3d scanning is helpful in finding if the large finished product fits the dimensions perfectly.
3d scanning is one good way of non-destructive testing. They can scan the 3d object with out practically touching on them.
Not only for the verification of dimensional purity, they also helps in alignment purity. The alignments can be analysed from 3d scan data models of the real object.
Employing the most advanced FARO laser scanners for scanning purposes, Edge 3d is India's leading 3d scanning service provider.

Application of 3d scanning in construction
In the field of construction the main application of 3d scanning is in the process of surveying. Suppose there is a site that you bought for building a company. If its the traditional surveying methods we adopt, then we have to wait days or even months based on the area of the site to do complete surveying. We have to measure the levels, area, record all the geographical features, record the topographical features for preparing the master plan. If its the 3d scanning we are adopting, what we need is a scanner device and associated software. Set up the 3d scanner at different places on the ground and we will get all the above features of the site with great accuracy in few hours compared to traditional surveying methods. 3 model of all the points on the site ground is available to us with a 3d scan device.In case of finished building, 3d scanning is the easiest and the fastest method to get floor area, volume and wall area of a structure. It will make any estimation associated with the building lot easier, precise as well as faster.
Application of 3d scanning in Architecture
Architecture deals with form, texture and functional space a lot. With the 3d scanned models, the interior planning and designing becomes easier. It takes lot of time for a professional to do a 3d model from the floor plan. Some irregular structures if present needs more work in the modelling.With 3d scanning, we can allot the entire modelling of the real world site to a 3d laser scanning device. All it takes for the device is a few minutes or few hours based on the volume of the building or structure. Plus the most complex structure can be captured with great precision through a 3d scanning device.
For even the landscaping needs 3d models are helpful as the 3d scan provides data of the levels of different part on the ground to the order of centimeters. It will thus make landscape designing or planning easier with the accurate level data.
Application in forensics
It is not easy to analyse or asses the crash scene damages days after crash has happened just with the help of photographs. A photograph being a 2d image has limitations in capturing the crash damages. With the employment of 3d scanning crash site can be captured as such and evaluate the damages very accurately on a later date. These are helpful in resolving claims related to the crash.Not only in crash cases, but also in saving the crime scene and and preserving it to a digital medium for later analysis is also one great application of 3d scanning in forensics.
Application in Quality Testings
In quality testings that are associated with dimensions of final products, 3d scanning offer great help. The quality testings are not that efficient and effective by picking a random sample and analyzing it. It also takes a lot of time if quality tests are done individually and manually for all finished products. With 3d scanning, quality becomes really simple, super easy and super effective. 3d scanning that offers great accuracy can scan a large number of items analyse them and find out the defective ones easily with in few time.In the case of industries where large size machinery parts are manufactured, 3d scanning is helpful in finding if the large finished product fits the dimensions perfectly.
3d scanning is one good way of non-destructive testing. They can scan the 3d object with out practically touching on them.
Not only for the verification of dimensional purity, they also helps in alignment purity. The alignments can be analysed from 3d scan data models of the real object.
Application in Film, game and other entertainment industries
The film sets can virtualized with the help of 3d scanning technology. This virtualizing is very helpful in pre-production and post-productions of games, films etc. Camera positions, light settings for a scene or a number of scenes can be pre-planned with the virtualized space data of the set.Reverse engineering structures or objects
For those structures or objects or building that don't have dimensional data available, digitized 3d scan models can be used to reproduce them easily.3d printing is way easier
Earlier when 3d scanning was not that used commonly, 3d printing for complex models were very difficult. First one has to model them in a 3d modelling platform, which takes a great a deal of time. Only after modelling , we can 3d-print them. But with the availability of 3d scanners, if its a tiny object which even has ultra-complex form on its surface, within few minutes of time 3d models can be captured. After that 3d printing can be employed to recreate or print them.Employing the most advanced FARO laser scanners for scanning purposes, Edge 3d is India's leading 3d scanning service provider.
