Using a 3D digitizer, a laser beam is passed over an object. Inside of the digitizer, a camera is mounted that tracks the physical position of the laser beam in 3D space. This 3D data (x,y,z points in space) is transferred to the computer where the object (or subject) is literally “drawn” on the computer as the laser moves over it.
