Segmentation of data measured by laser scanning in reverse engineering

Laser scanning is widely used due to its fast measuring and high precision, and the segmentation of the scanned data is necessary for the fast and efficient surface modelling. But most segmentation techniques are based on the very regular data and the adaptation of previous techniques to the scanned data does not usually produce good result. A new approach to perform the segmentation on the scanned data is introduced to deal with problems during reverse engineering process. The approach is based on the triangulated data and its result is depending on the some user-defined criteria. The result is illustrated to demonstrate its adaptability to the measured data on free-form surface and the each result by different criteria is compared respectively.
