| Reverse Engineering refers to
the ability to reproduce plans and diagrams from an existing
object. It is based on creating a digitized version of
objects or surfaces which can later be turned into molds
or dies. While it has a negative connotation, it is in
fact a very common procedure which has diverse applications
in various industries. For example, it is used to make
copies of objects such as spare parts, molds for art objects
and even mapping out the middle ear for hearing aid applications.
Existing probes and systems do
not provide sufficient speed, accuracy and ease of use
to perform precise reverse-engineering and digitizing
of complex surfaces. Instead, firms buy or make new
models or re-engineer the part required.
