The 3D scanner, available at the rapid manufacturing infrastructure of CERTH-HIT, is able to capture the geometry and texture of objects with sub millimetre accuracy. The 3D scanner employees the technology of videogrammetry. The scanner projects known image patterns on the objects and captures their deformation due to the shape of the object.  The scanner is able to capture at a rate of 8 frames per second with an accuracy of up to 0.05 mm. The capture volume of the scanner is similar to the print volume of the SLA 3D printer. The geometric data produced from the scanner is a 3D point cloud, this data requires further processing in order to be used for engineering purposes. This type of processing can be performed from the scanner's software allowing the reverse engineering of the object at a certain degree that allows its manipulation from CAD software. The 3D scanner was acquired in the framework of the “PROMYTHEAS” national project.
