Scan-to-SketchUp with InfiPoints DP on DPI-8 kit

Dear laser scanning community,

By publishing InfiPoints DP, our partner DotProduct introduces new surface-based CAD workflows. Using InfiPoints DP, you simply scan with your Android system into your CAD. Extract layers and cylinders out of DP point cloud data on your tablet PC. Export IGES and DWG models for direct import into leading CAD & BIM systems. Scan straight in your CAD system and get needed data within a few minutes.

The following video shows the workflow for SketchUp (IGES plugin needed).

Extract layers and cylinders automatically out of your DotProduct DPI-8 kit and import data directly into SketchUp:

  • Step 1: Capture
  • Step 2: Optimize and check
  • Step 3: Set coordinates and save
  • Step 4: Carry into DOT3D
  • Step 5: Open with InfiPoint DP
  • Step 6: Export as IGES or DWG
  • Step 7: Import in Sketchup
