2019 September - 18 articles

Cover Story: In most cases, objects to be reverse-engineered are first scanned to extract their shape information in terms of some point clouds. Instead, we present a scanner-free approach to create a small-sized point cloud that keeps the whole reverse-engineering process simple. This figure is one of the examples where we reverse-engineered a 3D object with surface texturing using the presented approach. View this paper
