Part 2: What Is the SERGE 3DX Measuring Contest? 2.1 Contest Structure The SERGE 3DX Measuring Contest is a hypothetical annual benchmarking event (similar to the real-world NIST Measurement Contest or CMM Olympics ). Participants receive a set of physical or simulated 3D artifacts—often a principal top , i.e., a principal (master) topology like a precision sphere, stepped cylinder, or freeform turbine blade. 2.2 Scoring Criteria Contestants are judged on: file serge3dxmeasuringcontestandprincipa top
