More and more possibilities: 3D image processing has made a huge technical leap forward: interesting technologies are now available both in the capture of 3D images and in the area of algorithms for evaluation. The 3D sensor AreaScan from the company VRmagic (distribution: Stemmer) works with fringe light projection, in which the light passes over the object and uses different patterns. The advantage: unlike other 3D technologies, the object no longer needs to be moved.
