Abstract
A device for determining the three-dimensional geometry of an individual object includes a supplier, a line projection, an image capturing system, and a processing unit connected to the first image capturing system for receiving the first signal. The processing unit is configured to determine, for each image from the image capturing system, a two-dimensional representation of a slice of the object, and determine, using the representation of each slice, a three-dimensional representation of the object. A method of determining a three-dimensional representation of an individual object includes the aforementioned steps performed by the processing unit.
