3D CAD Viewing gets Mobile

The solution enables large, complex 3D CAD (computer-aided design) data to be transferred to an iPad and then used for mobile visualization and comparison to real world conditions.

FARO’s Visual Inspect is a true next generation solution as it moves 3D CAD viewing away from the traditional desktop PC to a mobile ‘in hand, on demand’ solution. The 3D CAD data is stored locally on the iPad through an innovative, compressed, mobile format which provides an exceptional degree of flexibility and mobility that together drive increased productivity. It comes in
two options:

• Visual Inspect:enables intuitive mobile viewing, verification and documentation of complex 3D data with a three-step process of downloading the iPad application from the Apple Apps store, calibrating the iPad and activating the application with the calibration file.
• Visual Inspect AR: enables complex 3D data to be overlaid and compared to
  actual data in real time. The integrated iPad camera supports it as a more cost-effective alternative to other Augmented Reality (AR) products that require expensive cameras.
