Abstract :
This paper describes the collection, editing and reproduction of 3D structures, i.e. solid replication, with potential applications in computer vision, rapid phototyping, prosthesis, wind-tunnel modelling and scientific visualisation. Robotic transport of materials and `manufactured´ components is central to the approach adopted. The resulting system is economically viable and has commercial potential
