Early 3-Scanner developed prior to the invention of the CCD chip; It used an optical zoom lens. This model was used at the Ontario College of Art and Design (OCAD) in Toronto, Ontario. Un des premiers développements après l'invention du capteur photographique CCD. Cet appareil utilise une lentille optique. Ce modèle était utilisé à l'Université de l'École d'art et de design de l'Ontario à Toronto, en Ontario.
Function
Scanning objects in 3-D Analysé des objects en trois dimensions.
Technical
In the timelines of computer scanning history, the Truvel TZ3 is often mentioned as the first scanner with zoom lens. The scanner was introduced in 1989 at the CeBIT and production started in 1990. The donor purchased the scanner around 2005 from OCAD (Toronto) with the idea of making it into an art object. They had purchased newer scanner equipment and deemed this scanner to be obsolete. They probably purchased it directly from MacKenzie Brown who used to be the sole distributor in Canada. Dans l'histoire des analyseurs numérique, le Truvel TZ3 est souvent reconnu comme étant le premier analyseur avec une lentille zoom. Cet analyseur a été introduit en 1989 au CeBIT (salon des technologies de l'information et de la bureautique) en Allemagne et la production a débuté en 1990. Le donateur a acheté l'analyseur vers 2005 de l'Université de l'École d'art et de design de l'Ontario avec l'idée de l'utiliser comme objet d'art. L'université avait déjà acheté des analyseurs plus récents et ce modèle était considéré obsolète. Ils l'ont probablement acheté directement de MacKenzie Brown, qui était le seul distributeur d'analyseur au Canada.
