Preface
For many years additive manufacturing and 3D scanning were considered a futuristic science seen only in Hollywood movies and television shows. This technology has now become a reality which has found its way into mainstream society.
Today, with relative ease, folks in this field can explain their vocation in a manner that others can recognize and appreciate. The career opportunities in this profession are wide and varying as technology expands the scope of these revolutionary applications through multiple industries.
3D Scanning for Advanced Manufacturing, Design, and Construction is a result of many years spent in the field and in the lab throughout the formative development of this science. The authors combine to bring over 100 years of experience as they worked in varying facets of this field, and the manner in which it was applied to their area of expertise. Aerospace, manufacturing, industrial research and development, architecture, engineering, and construction all use this technology to advance the improvement of their respective trades. Each of these business segments and many more are explored with real-world examples. To that we credit our coworkers, clients, and vendors for their support and advice throughout the creation of this text. Without their experience and diverse knowledge, the culmination of work in the following pages would not exist.
