Abstract
Digitization of a 3-D object is provided by surrounding the object with flowable probes whose positions may be accurately determined. By identifying at least those flowable probes adjacent to the outer surface of the object, a locus of points on the outer surface of the object may be determined from which the object shape may be defined in a model.
