6 Reverse Engineering of Microcircuits
Finally, another significant reason to use RE in the automotive industry is a noticeable reduction in time of creation of the end product, be it a new car or an important
part of it.
As we know, the main task of modern marketing in globalization conditions is
finding new ways to reduce the time required for the new product to reach global
market, simultaneously reducing financial costs.
Rapid Product Development (RPD) allows developers and manufacturers to create
new technologies and structures very quickly, significantly reducing the time required
to present this product in the market.
Let us present here a short list of the main most common situations in which it is
plausible to use RE in industry.
– The original product manufacturer has ceased production of the parts required for
repair of the product (car), the term of aftersales service of which is not over.
– The necessity of improvement (modification) of certain properties (characteristics) of the product existing in the market but designed by competitors.
– Design documentation for the product has been lost or stolen by an intruder
(competitor).
– The need to analyze good and bad properties of a part and technical causes behind
them for the purpose of the quickest possible release of competitive (improved)
products in the market.
– The use of three-dimensional product models for production of separate products
taking into account individual features of the customer (design of dentures, upper
and lower limbs, bones and ribs for victims of accidents and disabled person).
– Documentation (digitalization) and reproduction of various crime scenes in the
interests of justice.
– Creation of 3D digital models of the product to be used in various animations and
games.
Of course, these above situations are only a small portion of all possible cases when
only the use of the below RE methods makes it possible to quickly solve problems,
sometimes completely unexpected, that arise during development of scientific and
technical progress.
6.1.2 Standard Implementation Route
of the Reverse-Engineering Process
Standard algorithm of the RE process implementation is shown in Fig. 6.4 and
contains only three main stages: product scanning, point processing, and specific
applications using so-called special geometric models.
The following source data are usually used to start the process of industrial reverse
engineering:
