You may be wondering: what’s so special about this door panel? Swipe to see more! ➡️➡️
These scans help demonstrate the powerful capabilities of combining strategic transportation design thinking and metrology-grade laser scanning. What you see here is actually only two scans, but presented in various ways. First, you have the door card itself, with all the luxury upholstering and fabrics. This scan captures all the fine details, down to the leather stitching and ergonomic buttons. The second scan has the panel removed, revealing all the inner workings of the door, such as cables, wiring, speakers, and most importantly, fastening points and areas to be avoided. Overlaid together, and you can see where things line up, where things go, and better yet, extract precise measurements. This effectively means the data can be used for projects such as designing new cards that are perfect fit. Or for motorsport projects, easily conform the roll cage to the doors and fabricate new door cards with the negative spaces of where the bars will fit without interference. Electronic and audio upgrades can be added easily with cleaner results.
These scans were for Audi A5 project.
