3D Laser Scanning

Overview

SAIC employs 3D laser scanning to deliver modeling solutions of physical assets with high degrees of measurement accuracy. Both industry and government are benefitting from our solutions created using this valuable tool derived from metrology, the science of measurement.

3D laser scanning is a quick and accurate free-form object capture process that translates usable data into a virtual environment. This process supplies a complete digital representation of a scanned item or object to be viewed and analyzed in a number of various ways. Our scanning solutions provide accurate results with provable validity.

SAIC has delivered positive results in the areas of highly detailed manufacturing, as-built drafting, historical record keeping, and reverse engineering. SAIC's metrology and survey solutions team is highly experienced in laser scanning and data processing for a wide variety of applications: 3D simulation models (military tanks, helicopters, airplanes, missiles, etc.), computer aided design (CAD) as-built drawings of small to large (up to 40 acres) manufacturing facilities, and all sorts of object configurations and model representations.

We use a comprehensive set of tools and capabilities to meet the demands of large and small measurement and modeling tasks.

Cost-Effective Solution

3D laser scanning is a proven, cost-effective and time-saving alternative to manual dimensional data collection techniques and can eliminate the need for other primitive measurement and surveying tools. It also provides a single, consistent solution for sharing highly accurate facility or equipment dimension information with project team members and historical record keeping. In short, 3D laser scanning is rapidly changing the way we see things.
