FARO Technologies unveils 3D App Store - the future of 3D documentation software

1 min read

FARO Technologies has unveiled its new 3D App Store, offering easy-to-use programs tailored to specific tasks, which, the company says, are the future of 3D documentation software.

Often, users do not need to buy and run complex software solutions that can handle multiple and complex tasks. All they need for specific jobs – like surface or volume calculations – are specialised applications, says FARO. With the company's 3D App Store, companies and organisations can lower their costs, as they only have to buy the specific applications required to support their daily activities. The FARO App Store will offer Apps for professionals working in sectors like construction, architecture, civil engineering, 3D survey, heritage, archaeology, mobile mapping, mechanical engineering, forensics and tunnel and mining. The 3D App Store is also open for third party software providers: companies developing Apps for laser scan management and processing can use the FARO 3D App Store as an additional channel to market their Apps and reach a larger base of potential customers. All Apps are tested and approved by the FARO Team, before being made available in the 3D App Store (weblink below).
