London, 29 September 2014 – TechNavio, a global tech-focused research firm has announced the publication of its market research report on the 3D Scanning Market in the US 2014-2018.
About 3D Scanning
3D scanning is a fast and accurate method of transferring the physical measurements of an object into a computer in an organized manner to produce 3D data. The process is carried out with the help of a 3D scanner that measures the physical world using lasers, lights or X-rays and generates dense point clouds. The 3D Scanning Market in the US is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.94 percent from 2014-2018.
About the Report
The latest report by TechNavio highlights growth in the use of structured light based 3D scanners, which scan the 3D shape of an object through projected light patterns.
“It is very difficult to reconstruct the 3D shape of an object with high accuracy using traditional 3D modeling methods. Therefore, enterprises have started adopting structured light-based 3D scanners. These scanners have various applications, including documenting objects of cultural heritage institutions, structured measurement of grinded surfaces, forensic investigations and reverse engineering,” says Faisal Ghaus, Vice President of TechNavio.
