Faro CAM2 Measure 10 software enables point cloud capture

  • Measurement software Faro CAM2 Measure 10
Faro CAM2 Measure 10 software includes a number of enhancements, including enabling the FaroArm, ScanArm and Faro laser tracker for the first time to collect and analyse point cloud data for reverse engineering, rapid prototyping and analysis.

The software also features Live Color Scan which permits rapid inspection of free form parts with the Faro ScanArm more quickly and easily. Live Color Scan highlights deviations from CAD during the scanning process to help identify inconsistencies quickly and expedite the scanning process. Shortcuts allow for the creation of new commands for obtaining measurement data that previously may have only been available through a series of complex operations. This feature enables users to record steps in a measurement process and then combines them into a single command to be accessed later.

An Easy Move wizard simplifies measurement of large parts, particularly when frequent repositioning is a necessity. It enables quick identification of correct target correspondence so reducing the time required to relocate (or leapfrog) the FaroArm and therefore also the potential for user error.

Other enhancements allow CAM2 Measure 10 users to conduct remote measurements, run commands and see real-time results from their Apple iPhone or iPad.
