Immersion Microscribe 3D Scanner

Are you reverse engineering or designing accessories? Are the original
CAD models either not available or not accurate to the finished part
due to manufacturing distortions? The Microscribe is the ideal product
for designers and animators seeking a larger
3D scan
work
area
at
a reasonable
price.
With a series of joints that behave like a human arm, the Microscribe
is very flexible and suitable for scanning objects with undercuts and
hard to reach areas. You merely touch the object to be scanned with the
tip of the arm, building up a series of 3D points or lines in the computer.
Using a Microscribe significantly reduces 3D computer modeling time
and improves accuracy when compared to traditional techniques using rulers
and vernier calipers. Freeform shapes and complex geometry are quickly
and accurately scanned into the computer.
Compatible
Easy-to-use and compatible with many popular 3D CAD software
programs (PC & MAC), the Microscribe is an affordable desktop digitizer.
Simple Connectivity
The Microscribe connects seamlessly to major software programs including
Pro-Engineer, Solidworks, Rhinoceros and 3D Studio MAX. You merely
connect the Microscribe to the computer via a RS-232 serial port or
a USB port.
The computer will see
the Microscribe as another hardware accessory, similar to a computer
mouse.
