Data Acquisition

• Mituyoto CMM machine and Hymarc Laser Scanning System were used for scanning data acquisition.
• Different scanning angles were used to cover the surface points representing an arm or ankle-foot complex (see Fig. 1).
• So called “original raw scanning data” was obtained (see Fig. 2, left).
• Pre-processing was used in order to remove the redundant point data and noises and to reconstruct the point cloud data into “optimal” data for CAD modeling called  “approximate point cloud” (see Fig. 2, right).
