Officials from the Coordinate Metrology Society (CMS) announce 27 technical presentations scheduled for its annual Coordinate Metrology Systems Conference (CMSC) from July 16 - 20, 2012, at The Roosevelt Hotel, New Orleans, LA. Each year, hundreds of 3D measurement/inspection professionals and scientists gather to share expertise, ideas, concepts, and theory during this 5-day event. Registration for the 28th CMSC is now open at CMSC Registration. 

The CMS has accepted technical papers from metrology experts and scientists from The Boeing Company, Lockheed Martin, Rolls-Royce, NIST, Argonne National Laboratory, National Research Council Canada, Hitachi Engineering and Services Company, Northrop Grumman, US Army Research Laboratory, US Navy, Clemson University, Purdue University, Electroimpact Inc., Institute of Measurement and Automatic Control at Leibniz Universität, ISRO Satellite Centre, Schneider-Electric, and more. 

CMSC presentations will cover a diversity of subject matter related to 3D metrology, including trends, techniques, and technology. Presentation topics range from “Curing Cancer with Metrology” to “Optical Metrology Guidance for Precision Robotic Machining of Composites.” The roster will also include successful applications of photogrammetry, laser trackers, articulating arms, laser radar, 3D scanners, 3D vision systems and more. A full listing of the CMSC 2012 presentations is available at 2012 CMSC Presenters.

The CMSC conference lineup includes a new Measurement Study, valuable workshops, networking events, and a packed Exhibition Hall featuring portable measurement systems (PCMMs), software, accessories, peripherals, and service providers servicing the needs of the industrial measurement marketplace. The CMS Certification Committee will also host a series of “pilot” certification examinations open to all registered attendees and exhibitors.
