Medical advances in fields such orthopedics, neurosurgery and the development of prosthetic parts can lead to new diagnostic tools, devices and components which depend on reverse engineering and/or rapid prototyping. Portable CMMs such asFARO’s measuring arm allow researchers to measure and scan a part quickly, compare with a CAD model or check the accuracy of fit prior to use.
3D inspection, modeling, and simulation using the FARO Laser Tracker and FaroArm fosters innovation in medicine by providing highly accurate data for use in research, product design and other clinical applications.
