Trilumen 

Trilumen is a start-up company focused on commercializing a novel 3D scanning technology originally developed at Johns Hopkins University’s Applied Physics Lab (APL). The scanning system is capable of creating a color accurate 3D model and image of a small object with resolutions smaller than 10 microns. These models/images can be used for forensic analysis, reverse engineering and quality control.

The management team received a TECHSTART Grant from TEDCO in 2008 and determined the APL scanner provided a compelling business opportunity. Trilumen was formed in 2009 and is currently conducting market research and developing an initial service offering.

Trilumen will develop the technology for applications in fields including forensics, quality control, historic preservation and new media.

The company has established a strategic partnership with Direct Dimensions, the world's leading authority on the application of geometric measurement technology.
