High quality colored 3D data can be generated projecting color information
onto digitized data.
To capture good quality color information, the object has to be nicely
illuminated and images are captured using the TRITOP photogrammetry system.
From these images, the TRITOP software defines the individual positions
of the markers on the object or its holder in the images. In addition
the actual 3D positions of these markers are defined and given to the
ATOS digitizing software. To capture the form, the ATOS digitizer is used.
The resulting detailed and accurate data mesh is then imported into the
TRITOP photogrammetry system. As the photogrammetry process calculated
also the individual positions used to take the color images, this information
can now be used to project the color onto the digitized data in an automated
process.
The resulting data file includes therefore an excellent form and color
definition as can be seen in figure 1-3.

Colored 3D data can be used to generate colored prototypes or to use
them for high quality digital product presentations. These nice data can
be accessed by a broad audience using modern multi-media based tools and
make sure your product gets the attraction needed.
