A critical task of vision-based manufacturing applications is to generate a virtual
representation of a physical object from a dataset of point clouds. Its success relies on …

Surface reconstruction means that retrieve the data by scanning an object using a device
such as laser scanner and construct it using the computer to gain back the soft copy of data …

Surface reconstruction of real-world objects is a commonly discussed topic in reverse
engineering. Generally, 3-D scanning technologies are used to scan the objects through …

A flexible manufacturing system is capable of dealing with changes and uncertainties
occurring in a manufacturing environment. A rigid automation system adapts changes …

This book provides a comprehensive overview of manufacturing systems, their role in
product/process design, and their interconnection with an Industry 4.0 perspective …

An engineering design process is a tool that engineers use to guide the development of
products and processes to make one's dreams into reality. Going through its steps helps …

As to the problem of surface reconstruction in 3D laser scanner, we propose a divide-and-
conquer based method, and realize the continuing growth of the reconstructed surface …

Like developments in rapid prototy** and tooling techniques assist physical models in
shortening time through computer-aided designing (CAD) models, reverse engineering …

Surface reconstruction is a challenging task in reverse engineering because it must
represent the surface which is similar to the original object based on the data obtained. The …

In this paper, a proposed algorithm for surface reconstruction from uniform or non-uniform
point sets is introduced. The points are typically acquired with multiple range scans of any …
