Professor Denis Laurendeau, from the Electric Engineering and Computer Engineering Department, and his team have launched the NSERC/Creaform Industrial Research Chair on 3D Scanning: CREATION-3D, with the objective of democratizing the tridimensional scanning process.  “Our goal is to develop innovative applications and user-friendly tools that will meet the users’ needs and the requirements of the future generations of 3D digital sensors,” explains Laurendeau. The 3D-CREATION Chair will focus its work on three major lines of investigation: intelligent multisensory data acquisition, modeling and recognition (geometry, appearance, movement, behavior), and visualization and action (of web applications, for instance).
