laser scanning (scanning, analysis and testing techniques, ... Processes and Techniques (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: The general method used to sample or scan a surface using laser technology. Controlled deflection of laser beams to perform analysis or provide insight. Uses are many, including in laser printers, in laser shows, stereolithography machines, barcode scanners, in rapid prototyping, in machines for material processing, in laser engraving machines, in ophtalmological laser systems, and in many other uses. |
