New versions 16.5 of PointSense and VirtuSurv

Post by Jana-at-kubit »

Hello,
FARO 3D Software is happy to announce the release of version 16.5 of PointSense and VirtuSurv with a number of new features making modelling of plants and buildings in AutoCAD® and Revit® even more efficient.
For more information checkout http://www.faro-3d-software.com/release16.5/

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.

VirtuSurv, our intuitive and easy-to-use solution for processing laserscan data based on photo-like scan views, provides a new user interface for SEMA GmbH’s timber construction tools software.

Best Regards
Jana

Jana,

Same question on subscription we are able to access immediately right?

Do I have to uninstall and reinstall Faro SDK files to make this new version work and make sure Scene and Recap still play nice with eachother or is that only when a new version of Scene comes out that we have to do the SDK files etc.

Thanks
John

Hi John,
Hi Chris,

All customers on subscription will be informed by email by the end of this week. You will receive the download link as well as the according licence update file. Of course you may access the setup immediately. You’ll find it on our website.

To Johns second question: Dealing with FARO SDK files is only related to new versions of FARO Scene. So as long as you do not have to update Scene, you will not have to care about SDK files.

BTW: Scene 5.5 has also been released. But as far as I know the new Scene setup will automatically install and register the SDK’s needed for importing FARO data into ReCap. So no manual registering SDKs should be needed.

In any case, if you should have trouble updating PointSense our support[at]faro-3d-software.com is ready to assist.

Best Regards.
Jana

Thanks Jana,

I am going to try the new 16.5 PointSense Plant and Virtusurv tomorrow or Monday and am holding off of Scene 5.5 for a bit until I hear on these boards that is nice and reliable.

I have another question Jana, just kubit/faro/autocad workflow related I will try to PM you here if I can figure out how.

Thanks
John
