Laser Design Inc. is a company headquartered in Minneapolis, MN that designs, manufactures, and sells 3D laser scanners used to digitally capture the shape of physical objects such as free-form surfaces and geometries.

Established in 1987, Laser Design offers 3D scanner and laser scanning services, with technology designed to reduce scanning time by enabling faster data collection.^[1] Surveyor 3D laser digitizing systems measure parts of all sizes, including those with geometry. Inspection and verification applications, including process control and in-line inspection, reverse engineering, rapid prototyping, are aimed to be a major consumer of laser scanning systems in the future.^{[citation needed]}

Laser Design received the Inc. 500 Fastest Growing Company awards in 2007^[2] and operates GKS Inspection Services, an in-house service bureau division offering 3D scanning, reverse engineering, and dimensional inspection services.^{[citation needed]} GKS provides terrestrial scanning services for digitizing large objects such as bridges, buildings, power plants, mines, and ships.^{[citation needed]}

GKS Inspection Services' Michigan facility is accredited by the American Association for Laboratory Accreditation in Mechanical Testing and Calibration (ISO/IEC 17025).^{[citation needed]}
