Abstract
Reverse engineering is playing an important role in generating and modifying CAD model, especially for the creation of 3D CAD model of sculptured surface. This paper made a survey of reverse engineering and its applications in rapid prototyping and computer integrated manufacturing. It divided reverse engineering into three main parts: data acquisition, surface reconstruction and data transfer. The recent research results, their merits and restrictions about surface digitizing, reconstruction of surface and data transfer technology are studied. A primary conclusion about reverse engineering and its applications in rapid prototyping and computer integrated manufacturing is drawn up.
