Laser Design Offers Rapidform LiveScan Plug In
 MINNEAPOLIS,
MN, Nov 25, 2008 - Laser Design Inc., the leading supplier of 3D laser
scanners for more than 20 years, announced that the Rapidform liveScan
plug-in is now available for Laser Design's line of FARO portable 3D laser
scanners.
This is great news for customers and customers-to-be who have a portable
Laser Design scanner with Rapidform software. The plug-in allows them to
scan directly into the Rapidform software package providing enhanced
graphical feedback of the scanning process as data is collected.
When using the Rapidform plug-in while gathering scan data from the FARO
arm, the user literally sees the point cloud being captured from the part in
real-time as the scanning process proceeds. The screen updates to the user's
viewing angle as the arm is moved around the part. This feedback allows the
user to adjust the scanning speed and approach as well as showing areas
where the user needs to go back and gather more data which greatly improves
the efficiency of the scanning process. The potential time savings are
significant, which translates into faster times to market and an improved
bottom line.
