DUBLIN, May 13, 2016 — (PRNewswire) —

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "3-D Scanning: Technologies and Global Markets" report to their offering.

The global market for three-dimensional (3-D) scanning totaled $5.1 billion in 2014 and nearly $5.9 billion in 2015. This market should total nearly $13.3 billion in 2020, rising at a five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.7% from 2015 to 2020.

This study was conducted with a global focus on 3-D scanning devices, services and applications. The market analyses herein thus also form a global perspective on the present and future state of the 3-D scanning market.

For each respective geographical region, the report analyzes key market traits, market drivers and industry-specific attributes to effectively understand the market opportunity for 3-D scanning technologies used in targeted application segments, including:

• QC and automated inspection (by region)
• Reverse engineering (by region)
• Asset generation (by region)
• Body scanning (by region.

Overall, the report focuses on the near-field scanning market, excluding systems designed for the scanning of objects more than a few meters in extent or distance from the scanner. This distinction is based on the deeply interconnected relations in technology and applications that bind the near-field technologies together to form a cohesive and well-defined market.
