Updated release of PointSense Software

FARO Technologies has updated PointSense, the Company’s leading Surveying and As-Built Documentation software suite for the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry.

With the release of Version 16.5, PointSense now includes additional tools and functionality for efficiently processing 3D laser scan data in Autodesk’s AutoCAD and Revit packages and accelerates documentation of as-built data.
 
New PointSense functionality for AutoCAD includes simultaneous fit of multiple polygon cross-sections, single-click plane extraction, and auto-boundary detection. New plant design tools include batch extraction of multiple structural steel elements and enhanced flange tie-in point extraction. 

Revit users will also benefit from new, intuitive deformation tools for comparing point clouds to any surface including walls, floors and ground. Additionally, users of Agisoft’s PhotoScan software can now import their calibrated photos into PointSense’s Heritage tools as an additional reference source for processing their point cloud data.
 
FARO also released new versions of its VirtuSurv, TachyCAD, and PhoToPlan software with enhanced functionality. VirtuSurv, the Company’s intuitive and easy-to-use solution for processing point cloud data based on photo-like scan views, offers a new user interface for SEMA GmbH’s timber construction tools software.
