K2T focused on creating custom robotics and 3D range-finding imaging systems to help them navigate complex environments. The most notable are the laser range-finding system created in 1992 for the DANTE walking robot that explored Mount Erebus in Antarctica as part of a NASA sponsored competition [18] and the 360-degree phase-based 3D laser scanner named SceneModeler created in 1997.[19] The company name was changed to Quantapoint in 1999 to reflect the focus on 3D laser scanning hardware, software and services.[19] Initially, Quantapoint focused on using 3D laser scanning to "digitize" buildings and create 2D drawings, 3D models and/or other animations or visualizations for renovations, additions or historic preservation. Notable projects include the Museum of Modern Art,[19] the Theban Mapping Project in the Valley of the Kings,[20] Monticello[21] and the Guggenheim Museum.[22] Since 2002, Quantapoint has served the chemical, petroleum and power industries[17] both globally and within the United States. Quantapoint has also worked with the United States General Services Administration (GSA).[23] Quantapoint has received several patents[13] and awards[24] for the 3D laser scanner hardware and 3D laser scanning data software that it has developed. 3D laser scanner hardwareQuantapoint uses both its own 3D laser scanner hardware, the SceneModeler 5 and SceneModeler 9,[14] and the Photon from Faro Systems.[25] Quantapoint has a fleet of more than twenty (20) 3D laser scanners.[26] Digital facilityThe Quantapoint Digital Facility consists of the following:[4]
