INUS Technology has announced the latest release of its software development kit (SDK) for 3D scanning application development. The updated version of Rapidform.dll enables developers to deploy point, mesh and surfacing functions into their own software products. The SDK now includes Rapidform’s rewrap, remeshing and curvature flow algorithms.

New features in the SDK include mesh topology tools, mesh editing capabilities, such as mesh Boolean operations and mesh cutting, advanced triangle normal repair (to assist with common issues with mesh direction), and user interface APIs for large point cloud and mesh display and selection tools.

In addition to the extensive point cloud, mesh and NURBS surface capabilities found in Rapidform.dll, users will find a set of APIs for dental and prosthodontic design from 3D scan data. Developers can create customized dental CAD programs that enable prosthesis design specific to each patient.
