Measurement Information Laboratory

There is a fast-growing need for utilization of the data collected by three-dimensional measuring equipment in engineering system. However, surface model is used in the conventional engineering system though measurement data is treated as polygon model, so there is a problem that measurement data is not useful in the system. To solve it, we conceived research and development of new engineering system that integrates measurement and CAD/CAM/CAE centering on polygon model. We research component technology "Geometric processing for polygon" and "Tomographic image processing", necessary for this system implementation.

Research Subjects

• Investigation of issues of measurement data processing
• Concept design of Polygon Engineering
• Research on geometric processing for polygon
• Research on tomographic image processing
