The laser scanner works by sending an invisible laser beam into a rotating mirror that deflects the laser beam around the environment being scanned. With 120m range and +/-2mm accuracy the laser scanner captures full coordinate information for a cloud of points on every surface the laser hits. It also documents each scan location with color images. By taking multiple scans from different locations the combined data can be a useful reference for large objects.
This scanning process will change how you think about ship checks and 3D documentation. Here are just a few ways we are using this technology:
Refurbishments and extensions
