3D SCANNING
The technology behind the Focus X330 3D Scan provides very precise scans. First, the laser scanner emits a laser beam from a rotating mirror out towards the area being scanned. Then, the unit distributes the laser beam at a vertical range of 300 degrees and a horizontal range of 360 degrees. The laser beam is then reflected back to the scanner by the object in it’s path. The distance to the object defining an area is calculated as well as the relative vertical and horizontal angles. The data is captured and transmitted via WLAN for calculating exact 3D renderings. The Forensic Scientists at IRSA are all trained on the proper operation of the 3D scanner.
IRSA utilizes the 3D Scanner by scanning an object or area. This process creates a 3D model of each scan and stitches them together to create a virtual walk through environment. The above tool allows us to develop animations, take measurements, and produce scenarios in order to obtain accurate scientific data.
