Reverse Engineering of 3D Models Based on Image Processing and 3D Scanning Techniques

3D laser scanners play an essential role in Reverse Engineering. Laser-based sensors are non-contact fast sensors and therefore are commonly used to digitize the object. However, 3D boundary detection of the 3D digitized points produced by laser-based scanners is problematic due to the fact that the sensor data is often unreliable near sharp edges.
