IPUM is the key event to attend to learn the latest developments in the field of point cloud engineering and to discover the latest 3D digitizing technologies available on the market.

InnovMetric is proud to count on the presence of power users from top manufacturers in the automotive and aeronautic industries to give technical presentations. This group of speakers is composed of Dirk Kissinger from Opel (Germany), Lay Knoerr from General Motors (USA), Glenn Hill from Honda R&D Americas (USA), and Chris Simmons from Rolls-Royce (UK). IPUM 2008 will also offer technical presentations by researchers and lecturers from universities and research centers, featuring Luis Guzman from the University of Michigan (USA), Angelo Beraldin from the National Research Council Canada, Ian Kennedy from the Manchester University (UK), and Karen Ryan from the University of Minnesota (USA). Finally, the agenda includes professionals from the manufacturing world to present case studies of real point-cloud-engineering applications. Speakers include Bill Bonner from Dimensional Engineering (USA), Travis Chometsky from Weatherford (Canada), and Doug Philips from Graftech (USA). Other presentations will be announced in the upcoming weeks.
