3D WEARABLE GLOVE SCANNER

摘要

Disclosed is a 3D scanner in the form of a wearable glove that can be worn by a user to swiftly scan the objects that the user touches. Touching the edges or corners of the object is enough for the present invention to automatically generate the necessary 3D model of the object. The user can scan an object with holes regardless of the object's size. The wearable glove is thin and light, and can be folded and carried in the user's pocket ready for use at any time or place.

主权项

1. A 3D scanner in the form of a wearable glove to scan an object wherein the 3D scanner is comprised of:
a glove that can be worn in a user's hand to touch the object; a first sensing unit to detect the contact points on the glove that touches the object; a second sensing unit to determine the current position of the contact points relative to a base point located on the glove; a third sensing unit to track the location of the base point relative to a reference point that has a fixed position; and a computer system that receives the output of the first sensing unit, the second sensing unit, and the third sensing unit and constructs the 3D model of the object.
