Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Aims: The aim is to teach the skills to independently surface scan, post-process, and analyze a medium complex object using the scanner and software of the department.

Contents: The course gives an introduction into different surface scanning methods, with an emphasis on optotopometric surface scanning. Besides calibration and the scanning itself, the post-processing and analyses of the data are emphasized.

Methods: brief lectures, demonstrations, practical exercises (individual as well as in class), conducting an individual scanning project under supervision.

Assessment and permitted materials

Attendance and active participation, little written tests and exercises, individual practical final project and its presentation

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

A minimum of 51 points is required for the successful completion of the course. The single components are weighted as follows: regular attendance and active participation (20 points), written or oral tests (20 points), practical final project (3D model: 30 points, oral presentation and reply to questions: 30 points).

Examination topics

Continuous assessment of course work (prüfungsimmanent)!
