NVision Scanners Provide Crucial EvidenceMaterials Analysis, Inc., has used NVision's non-contact MAXOS measurement system and HandHeld Scanner to provide critical assistance in a number of recent product liability cases. "The high levels of accuracy provided by non-contact scanning can often rule out hypothesized causes of accidents. In one case they even served as a benchmark to prove that a defect was too small to be adequately documented, preventing the evidence from being irreversibly altered by unnecessary sectioning," said Mark Allen Lewis, Staff Engineer for Materials Analysis. "Another key advantage of scanning is the ability to quickly generate electronic solid models that are much easier for non-technical people to visualize than blueprints."
