Abstract

A three-dimensional (3D) laser scanning system is the main part of reverse engineering. It is a comprehensive technological system, including numerical control (NC), a laser, computer-aided design/manufacturing (CAD/CAM), precision mechanisms, computing image sampling, and image processing. Generally, it consists of a motion control system, an image sampling system, and an image processing system, etc. This paper focuses on introducing control principles, hardware constitutions, and software algorithms of the servo motion system, and analyzes and presents the hardware constitutions, software algorithms, and experimental results of the image sampling and processing system in great detail. Finally, the authors come to the conclusion that the errors all occur within the range ±0.1 mm.
