How Will Metrology Evolve In The Near Future?

The last 25-30 years have seen many advances in computerization, software applications and equipment use. Therefore, it is no surprise that metrology continues to benefit from these changes. With the advancement of 3D scanners and CMM laser scanners, the precision world of metrology during the process of manufacturing will continue to improve, as will the ability to ensure tighter controls over quality and inspection. There will be many more devices produced that will increase productivity not only in the manufacturing domain, but also in the automation industry.
