Research on Stereo Image Acquisition Technology of 3D Printing

Abstract:

In the process of 3D printing, stereo image acquisition is the basis and premise of 3D modeling so that it’s important to study the acquisition methods and techniques. This paper will study the process of point cloud data acquisition of a hand model by using handheld laser scanner REVscan, and processed by the reverse engineering software Geomagic Studio. Using the object model captured, we can greatly improve the efficiency and accuracy, as well as reduce the cycle of the 3D printing. This will help achieve the transmission of 3D printing data without geographical restrictions, in which truly realize the concept "What You See Is What You Get".
