What
can a 3D Laser Scanner and SceneVision-3D do for your work?
 | Capture
ancient ruins, precisely and in photorealistic color. |
 | Add high-resolution,
color textures from close-up photos of walls, tiles, or artwork and
embed them in the 3D model for the ability to 'zoom' in |
 | Create walk-throughs
of the site with pre-defined paths. |
 | Add documentation
'hot spots' with information about particular artifacts. |
 | Measure distances
and angles |
 | Export data for CAD
models and drawings and GIS data management |
 | Provide virtual
visits for protected sites |
 | Create virtual
worlds on CD |
