3D scanning is a technique that captures and analyses real world objects. It is used in a wide range of fields. This technology is also gaining traction in the gaming industry, which is seeing rapid advancement. Many of the most common types of 3D scanners work with software that creates digital models of the object being scanned. This includes Geomagic, Rhino 3D, and Imageware. These software programs can export NURBS surfaces and allow user to edit the model inside SolidWorks. Other software programs may include a dedicated reverse-engineering program that can analyze the data and process it into CAD or other software.
