Abstract

Methods and systems for calibrating inspection of a feature on a part are described. The method comprises acquiring, at a plurality of point cloud densities, measurement data from a reference part having a known defect associated with the feature; assessing the measurement data at the plurality of point cloud densities to detect the known defect; determining a lowest point cloud density from the plurality of point cloud densities at which the known defect is detectable; and setting an inspection point cloud density for inspection of the feature to the lowest point cloud density.
