Abstract: A surface data acquisition, storage, and assessment system for detecting and quantifying similarities or differences between stored data and data collected from a scan. The system operates to scan features of an object and weighs various parameters and utilizing fuzzy logic makes a recommendation.

Abstract: A system and method of determining the condition of a surface by scanning the surface of an object and detecting and measuring the electromagnetic spectrum being directed from the surface to obtain raw data from a plurality of points along the surface and assigning values for each particular data type of raw data and creating a color space for viewing by an operator to determine the condition of the surface.

Abstract: A performance scanning system that operates to detect and measure surface parameters of a portion of an athlete and uses the surface parameters to determine the likelihood that the athlete's physical performance has been or will be impaired.

Abstract: A surface data acquisition, storage, and assessment system for detecting and quantifying similarities or differences between stored data and data collected from a scan. The system operates utilizing a method that decreases the time required for calculating a pose estimate thus increasing its performance making it more practical for applications that require real-time operations. In a preferred embodiment the system comprises one or more sensing components for scanning and measuring surface features of an object for determining the identity of the object, and determines differences between data obtained from two or more scans.
