Data Capture for Reverse Engineering

The DMS has extensive experience in data capture for the purpose of reverse engineering objects- from car door panels to entire aircrafts. Reverse engineering involves capturing surface data on an existing object and then digitally recreating it as a 3D Computer Aided Design (CAD) model. Depending on the object and the amount of surface data to be captured, either close-range photogrammetry or laser tracking may be utilised.
