Arrival 3D are tasked with the 3D Scanning of this Racing Boat for the purposes of design development.
3D Laser Scanning in Seattle, WA: Our client, a championship winning manufacturer of racing boats require 3D Laser Scanning of one of their designs & the creation of a representative CAD model. Utilizing these digital assets, planning and design can progress rapidly around the accurate digital representation of the craft.
The starting point is to document the existing design via 3D Scan Data, which is where Arrival 3D bring value.
The resulting Scan Data, a “point cloud” comprising millions of points of data, can be utilized as is for both measurement and spacial planning, or the data can form the basis of an accurate, geometric CAD model. Arrival 3D routinely provide to clients Point Cloud, Revit & Solidworks CAD models.
The Arrival 3D data collection process takes only a few hours onsite and we require only easy access to the scanning subject.
We employed a long range Leica RTC360 with a carbon fiber tripod to capture the racing boat’s shape. This was accomplished by placing the scanner at various heights and positions around the boa, capturing the boat from every possible angle to get full coverage in the 3D laser scan point cloud. The individual scans were stitched together to create a complete 3D point cloud representation of the craft. One challenge presented here is that the glossy paint can cause the 3D laser scanner laser to be reflected. This causes noise, reflections and other false points in the point cloud. to get rid of these, a combination and close trimming and noise reduction tools are used to prepare the point cloud for surfacing. The point cloud is then converted in to a polymesh surface that can be used by the customer.
