January Special Focus Issue: Design for Additive
In this Special Focus Issue of Digital Engineering, learn about the latest advancements in design for additive manufacturing, including new software tools, additive in automotive, custom medical devices, and more.
SYCODE (Panaji, India) launched Point Cloud 1.0 (295 Euros), a stand-alone application for reverse engineering. Point Cloud allows users to wrap a mesh around or drape a NURBS surface over point-cloud data imported from a text file. The surface can be draped along the 6 orthogonal directions or in a custom direction. Point Cloud 1.0 can also compensate for probe diameter when points were recorded by a touch probe digitizer.
Point Cloud 1.0 uses the OpenSURBS 3DM format as its native file format for storing point, surface, and mesh data. The company also makes reverse-engineering plug-ins for AutoCAD and Rhino.
A fully functional trial version of Point Cloud 1.0 is available for download at www.sycode.com/products/point_cloud/index.htm.
