Overview Using our dented “mini-hood” and our Quidient Reality™ prototype, we previously demonstrated the ability to create 3D dent profiles from a single image that measured within 28-micron RMSE in comparison to a highly accurate Zeiss Comet structured light system. We also provided a method for using this measured profile to determine a reference size…
Overview To test the profile measuring accuracy of Quidient Reality™ as a hail dent recorder, we built a ½-scale automotive panel (“mini-hood”) using metals and automotive finishes comparable to a typical automobile. We dented the panel to simulate hail damage. Next, we contracted with a third-party company to measure the mini-hood using a highly accurate…
