Siemens Gamesa was looking for a 3D scanning system to take exact, agile measurements of wind turbines and their components so that they could be analyzed and processed using CAD software. The main goal was to dispense with traditional and inaccurate measuring tools such as tape measures and gauges, in favor of a more agile and precise method.
This blog post aims to guide you through the basic concepts and definitions of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T); more precisely, this includes what GD&T is, how it works, and why it is important to implement GD&T processes. Furthermore, it emphasizes that all of the geometric characteristics and tolerances written on a technical drawing are there for a specific purpose of functionality.

Matroid's deep-learning system comprising of 3D-CNN helps to automatically detect Glaucoma from a single raw Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) scan. The results are close to human doctors across heterogeneous datasets and scanning environments.
Beginners might be surprised to find that their 3D scans turn out not as solid 3D models, but as clusters of spatial data points. So what exactly is a point cloud, and what can you do with it?
Flatness is a measure of a surface’s form that indicates whether all of the points along that surface lie in the same plane. Symbolized in Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing by a parallelogram, flatness is particularly useful when two surfaces must be assembled together to form a tight seal.
