PointCab Version 3.6 available - for an even faster workflow

Blog Kategorien: 

Dear laser scanning community,

Our partner, the PointCab GmbH has recently released a new version of its point cloud processing software. With version 3.6 some functions were reworked and improved. The new version also contains some useful new features that we would like to introduce to you.

The most important new features and optimizations

Any number of scans from any scanner in one project

You want to combine different scanning projects, such as data from portable hand-held scanners and terrestrial scanners? With the extended editing capability of the 3D points, the revised transformation calculator and the combination of several scanning projects, this can be achieved in a matter of minutes.

Transparent Sections

In many cases, floor plans and sections with a transparent background are needed. This allows an efficient comparison with existing models in your CAD system and the superposition of views.

WebExport with Planar Panoramic Views

Provide your customers a clear WebExport on a USB flash drive or on a web server without the need for a browser flash plug-in so you can display them on a smartphone or tablet. The WebExport was reworked and the visualization improved significantly.

Clustered Registration

The target-based registration allows now creating and managing clusters. This speeds up the registration of terrestrial scans, reduces possible sources of errors in the automatic assignment, and makes it easier to optimize the registration process. Of course, you can now also define individual sphere diameters, which are taken into account in the extremely fast search.

Export panoramic views from point clouds 

The enhancement of the point cloud export to the individual terrestrial scan views now allows individual cutting of interesting objects and the import direct into your CAD system.

The benefit: Avoid the annoying importing and trimming of the whole point cloud in your CAD system when modeling complex objects.

Incremental point cloud export by duplication 

With the advanced duplicate function for point cloud export, you can quickly split your entire project into separate blocks.

The benefit: In your CAD system is only the relevant point cloud area displayed. Working in the CAD system becomes more effectively. This functionality was already available, you only had to create all blocks manually.
