Review of Industrial 3D Image Scanning Solutions for Enhanced Quality Control in Manufacturing Assembly Lines

Recently due to the advances of 3D scanning by using the structured and robotic light sensors, a significant enhancements of quality-control in automated industry can be achieved. These enhancements open the door for new industrial quality control solutions and presented in different industrial/research case studies and scenarios. Surface deformations detection in automotive industrial panels, 3D intelligent illumination in industrial gauge dimensional scenarios and reverse engineering are some of these main utilizations of the recent advances in 3D industrial scanning. This paper presents the latest solutions in this field which aim to efficient quality-control management in automated industries with high precision results. These types of presented reviews in this paper help industry developers as well as academic researchers to collaborate in developing the processes of 3D image scanning to reduce the cost and the time with highly precise achievements in automated industrial applications and future scenarios.
