Fish,
Excalibur has users in all facets of racing...NASCAR, BIKES, JET SKIS, SNOWMOBILES and I'm sure many others I am not aware of.
The key is to get good data...The Faro and Romi arms are not really a good choice since they both use a mechnical probe with a ball tip. This means you are not really getting the point of the surface you are touching but rather the center of the ball on the probe tip.
The better systems will use a laser or optical system that actually returns data points on the surface of the object being scanned.
Not that you can use the mechnical methods, its just they are more difficult and take much more time.
