- Ranging laser passed over part's surface
- Red stripe represents capture of ~ 6,000 data points
- Data forms high-fidelity cloud of points defining part's geometry
- Point cloud data appears on monitor during acquisition
- Successive passes made until all features are captured
- Multiple passes from a variety of angles and directions ensure full coverage
- Overlapping passes averaged together automatically
- Large parts and parts that require repositioning are possible
- Point clouds with different coordinate systems are stitched together after acquisition

Resultant point cloud -- intermediate product of the laser acquisition process.
