3D Computer Modeling in Metrology

FSI-X3DAcad. year: 2009/2010

Computers and graphics devices are the basic components of both computer graphics and image-processing systems. Graphic systems usually generate their own images, while those of image-processing systems are captured by a infrared cameras. systems. Interactive computer graphics systems allow user (student)interaction and can be described at tree hierarchical system levels. It is essential to make a clear distinction between the phisical devices and device level.

Learning outcomes of the course unit

Frequenting the course a student will be able to designe some basic sketchs, features, models and basic assemblies, and next works with the software PhotoWorks to create photo-realistic imagines directly from SolidWorks.

Prerequisites

Basic knowledge of the system Microsoft Windows, Microsoft Word, knowledge of the Internet and an arbitrary 2D graphical system.

Co-requisites

Not applicable.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Aims

The software SolidWorks makes possible for students of the basic course to quickly sketch out ideas, experiment with features, dimensions, and produce models. SolidWorks uses a 3D design approach only. As a student designs a part, from the initial sketch to the final model, he creates a 3D entity. From 3D entity, he can create 2D drawings, or he can mate different components to create 3D assemblies.
