Laser scanning is now common place in the film and gaming industry for pre-visualisation of scenes, or in post-production, to help create stunning and visual special effects . The speed and accuracy of laser scanning allows for environments, sets, objects, and people to be captured in 3D to a high level of detail and precision, in a matter of minutes.
The ability to quickly create exact copies of locations and objects has significantly reduced the time and cost of 3D modelling.
3D effects rendering
- Applications
Explosion and fire scene
Simulation of realistic scenes
Eye catching effects
- Benefits
Most realistic conveying message of action, scenery, … with these effects
Eye catching and true, effects
Much cost effective
Enabling to perform complex, dangerous scenes shooting without the need to destroy props or set up complex film studio
Ensure safety
Creation 3D detail models
- Applications
Create a scenic environment in a film, with accurate object copy (locomotives, cars, planes, etc.) then create animation, scan massive building or famous old citadel surface
- Benefits
Enabling to attach images of objects absent in a film section to increase the livelity, attractiveness …
Enabling to change the shape or deform of people, animals, plants images in neccesary detail.
Much cost effective
Film virtual reality
- Applications
Application for animated and action films:
+ Creation modeling objects non-existent in reality For ex: Avatar (2009)
- Benefits
Eye catching and true, effects
Diversitifying film business and film content.
Exiting film viewer
Teaching materials
- Applications
Materials used in teaching
- Benefits
Once captured or created materials will be stored forever, suitable for advanced filmmaking classrooms, or for 3D design
