SMARTTECH Combines 3D Scanning and Robotics into One Mechanism

Polish-based 3D scanner company SMARTTECH has created a coordinate measuring machine (CMM) by combining 3D scanning technology and robotics into one mechanism.
According to 3D Printing Industry:

The Robotized was created to completely nullify human error when undertaking a 3D scan. To build it, the team connected a 3D scanning head to a robotic arm and placed it within an enclosed box. This means that the only job of the human user is to place the object on the rotary platform and turn on the machine. From there, the robotic arm glides across the object, emitting sporadic beams of light as it scans the exact positions of the object underneath it.
