Though the commercial landscape of industrial metrology has changed significantly in recent years, the strengths and
advantages of digital photogrammetry, or vision metrology (VM), ensure its role as a highly competitive, three-dimensional
coordinate measurement tool. Used predominantly for inspection and reverse engineering, today it is
increasingly utilized for building within the manufacturing process. This paper presents an overview of innovation and
the current status of VM in industry and engineering. A brief description of the state-of-the-art is followed by summaries
of five unique applications that illustrate the basic types of available VM systems. In concluding remarks, selected
emerging trends are discussed.
