Point - Cloud Scanning for Craftsmanship

(I am a graduate student in Mechanical Engineering at RIT)

I am currently researching methods of using laser scanning or
computed tomography to evaulate the craftsmanship of products
such as automobiles.

I have found plenty of information on algorithms to reconstruct
surfaces from point cloud data. I have also found many vendors
who can create CAD models based on this data. What I am still
looking for is papers or other sources that show how these
techniques cab be used to measure the overall quality of a product.
For example, the fit of two automobile panels, consistency of surface
finish, and tolerances in assembled parts.

if anyone knows of any researchers, companies, or papers that
might have information on this, please email me at p75j@hotmail.com.

Thanks,
P. Jansky

Conformable wedge transducer
Stand IMASONIC SAS
The conformability is obtained with a flexible membrane filled with water between the transducer and
...
the inspected component. The coupling between the membrane and the component requires a small quantity of water or couplant. The conformable wedge combines the acoustic performance of immersion technique with good coupling and low attenuation.

NEW! The PragmaPro Instrument Platform
Stand PRAGMA
The PragmaPro is based on a modular cartridge technology and supports various NDT instrument modal
...
ities such as UT, PAUT, ECT and many more. This new platform is based on a machined, powder-coated aluminum frame for shock-proofness, best sealing qualities and maximum heat dissipation. This is practical to extend the outdoor temperature range and/or to extend the power injected in the transducers. The PragmaPro is aiming at a very wide range of applications, such as weld scanning, corrosion mapping and composite testing.
