Claims4
A system for analysing a three-dimensional wear surface in a material handling system to generate scalar measurement data therefrom, the system including:
- a scanner, configured to generate point cloud data of the three-dimensional wear surface;
- and
- a processor, configured to receive the point cloud data and generate the scalar measurement data therefrom by:
- generating a plurality of subsets of points of the point cloud data;
- and
- from each of the plurality of subsets, selecting a single scalar measurement associated with a point of the subset, wherein the plurality of single scalar measurements from the plurality of subsets form the scalar measurement data.
