Subject

From 2017 to 2019, a procedure for testing the capabilities of three-dimensional metrology software packages, their users, and even three-dimensional measuring machines, was developed by the companies Annecy-Métrologie, Somfy and the Symme laboratory (E. Pairel). The main instigator of this development was an engineer from Annecy-métrologie, who retired in 2019. Since then, it has not evolved, even though it was very popular with the metrology community, to whom its objectives were presented at a congress. In fact, metrologists suspect possible discrepancies in the results of three-dimensional measurements of the same object, but in the absence of any element of comparison, they are unable to acknowledge this and therefore seek to improve.

The aim of the training course proposed here is to create an on-line test enabling any metrologist to self-assess the quality of an object to be measured. This test will assign a score and will be recorded anonymously in a table. Eventually, this table will be used to write and publish a landmark scientific article. Ultimately, this test could even become a benchmark for qualifying metrologists, mainly in industry.

In particular, it will be necessary to determine the right IT tool, even if Polytech's digital teaching platform is currently the preferred choice.

Skills and qualities required:

Knowledge of technical drawing and geometric product specification is essential.

Knowledge of website or web application development is a plus.

Rigor and precision in work are essential.
