3D Arena
Automated installed photogrammetry systems
Multi-camera 3D inspection with unprecedented measurement freedom
Would you like to know more?
A constellation of high-definition cameras supported by a high-stability carbon frame captures a constant live feed of a signalised measurement object. Every measurement is automatically transformed into the object coordinate system, and the 3D Arena always knows where the object as well as work tools and testing devices are located within the coordinate space.

Photogrammetry meets laser trackerThe highly customisable nature of a 3D Arena allows it to be used in conjunction with laser trackers within large integrated measurement and alignment systems, such as might be used in wind energy construction and assembly.
This sort of metrology-assisted assembly system has the potential to deliver large productivity gains when used in combination with a specially designed automation and control system.- Fixed wide-angle laser tracker targets can be used to introduce a coordinate system within which the photogrammetry results can be referenced
- Calibration is automatable using a custom robot and turntable based system
- Flexibility of the 3D Arena concept means there is no limit to part size
- Live results provided by the 3D Arena dynamic referencing capability is ideal for assembly alignment task
