3D Laser Scanner Tecnology

Scans Surrounding Environments as 3D Point Cloud Data

Enables to Creation of Drawings and 3D Modeling

Utilized in Repair Planning, Disaster Prevention Simulation etc.

3D laser scanner is a device that captures shapes of surrounding objects in a form of “point clouds” – meaning that all information become digitized.　The data can be utilized for modeling, monitoring of infrastructure, security checks, designs and etc.

By creating the model data from acquired point clouds, users can detect possibilities of conflicts in complex piping systems. Also, it is suitable for simulation of new facilities and planning of the new piping layouts.

By scanning the entire shapes of the facilities and converting the data into CAD drawings it is possible to realize more efficient renovations and repairs. The data can also be used for disaster simulation such as flooding.

Original drawings of the cultural property, built hundreds of years ago might be lost at the present. 3D scanning helps to recreate/create elevation or section view drawings. Moreover, the acquired data of minute details of decorations is essential for the preservation activities.
