In this paper, we propose a novel type of 3-D scanning system named ‘Ladder-type laser scanning system,’ designed for scanning vertical and narrow areas. Two line scanners are...
Precise digital 3D models of indoor environments are needed in several applications, e.g., facility management, architecture, rescue and inspection robotics. This paper presents a...
Creating freeform surfaces is a challenging task even with advanced geometric modeling systems. Laser range scanners offer a promising alternative for model acquisition--the 3D sc...
1 sensors is to construct a structural description from sensor data and to match this description to a previously acquired model [Crowley 85]. An alternative is to project individu...
