3D scanning technology has been rapidly rising and revolutionizing the world of manufacturing. A 3D scanner is increasingly becoming more important for manufacturers as the world is moving towards ...

Motivated by recent visits from interstellar comets, along with continuing discoveries of minor bodies in orbit of the Sun, this paper studies the capture of objects on initially hyperbolic orbits by ...

LYON, France–France has awarded Dark, a startup that provides low-Earth-orbit (LEO) object capture services, a contract to simulate the interception of an active hostile spacecraft. The agreement with ...

A computer-generated picture of 3I/ATLAS. China's Tianwen-1 Mars orbiter has become the first spacecraft to capture and release a close-range image of the interstellar object 3I/Atlas, ahead of NASA ...

Got something you want to scan in 3D? It turns out you can use your iPhone with apps like Qlone, Scandy Pro, and Polycam, without any special hardware. With Apple rolling out Object Capture on MacOS ...

Epic Games has debuted a new tool for developers that will allow them to turn any real-world object into a usable asset in their creation. Epic Games has released its RealityScam app for iOS, enabling ...

A research team has achieved a new milestone in 3D X-ray imaging technology. The scientists have captured high-resolution CT scans of the interior of a large, dense object -- a gas turbine blade -- ...

To demonstrate the system, the researchers showed that it could reconstruct real-time high-quality still images of a model jet engine rotating at about ∼2170 rpm (top images) and a CPU cooling fan ...
