The machine I seen was what looked like, a CNC machine. Instead of there being any cutting tools/pens etc it looked to be some sort of probing as Graffian mentions...?
Have a look on the Mach forums (if you are using Mach that is). Digitising is built into Mach. In the link above there are instructions on how to build your own digitiser as Renishaw probes can be expensive even second hand or from fleabay.

The Davids site is quoting accuracy of 0.4mm with a decent laser and camera but Renishaw probes can be much more accurate. And yes this is also on my "I want one of those" list:)
