An Overview of the Application of Reverse Engineering in Selected Fields

With the continuous development of industrial technology, reverse engineering has become an effective way of research and processing in the development of new products and components. Reverse engineering analyses, deduces and researches the existing products, instruments or systems, and carries out transformation, development and innovation by understanding their principles and design functions. In terms of life, with the gradual enrichment of material life, most of the people are no longer limited to the practicality of material requirements, but also for the appearance of the aesthetic level is also rising. Through the use of reverse engineering technology, such as soap box shape design, motorbike plastic parts design, bicycle handle design and so on. In the field of archaeology, reverse engineering technology is a technology that meets the requirements of archaeology, under the premise of better protection of cultural relics, it plays a pioneering role in the dissemination of culture, especially non-material culture, and provides technical support for human archaeology and ancient text decipherment. For the above contents, this paper will make a comprehensive description, summarise and analyse the application results and development prospects of reverse engineering in some fields.
