In this version we improve volume computation for fill volumes, so you can estimate backfill volumes of trench or pit. + improve volume computation algorithm + crop function improvements - bug fixes

June 29, 2022

+ export to usdz, obj, stl for mesh objects + add textured snapshot - bug fixes

We added new method for volume computations, bounded by closed polygon. This It is suitable for cutting or filling volumes. Add .las export format for point clouds from CAD editor. Other improvements and bug fix. All scanning functionality available with devices with LiDAR sensor. For other devices only CAD editor is available.

In this version added the ability to define a coordinate system. Set level for control points, or define origin and axis orientation of scanning scene! Also we add new isolines render mode. Analyse relief with equal height lines in realtime. In scanning goto Settings -> Visualization to enable Isolines render mode.

+ new cut tool for mesh and cloud + simplification improved - bug fix

June 13, 2021

+ add mesh simplification for scaned meshes - bug fix

In this version we add ability to add GPS Point. It based on phone location coordinates. It is useful for surveying and mapping.  Each GPS Point saved as block with coordinates in WGS84 (BLH). For indoor scanning we add flashlight support for dark places. App analyses the lighting conditions and prompts you to use a flashlight if necessary. Scanner functionality available with devices with built-in LiDAR sensor, for other devices Cad editor available, and for it we added: + 3d Dimension tool, for measuring between two spatial points. + tested App with Bosch PLR series rangefinders with Bluetooth LE support - bug fixes

This version includes new volume tool, that allows to measure meshing volumes in the CAD editor. Fill or cut measuring are possible. With new volume tool it is possible to edit reference plane: define other "zero" level or non-horizontal plane. App uses built-in Lidar sensor to measure volumes and capture meshes or point cloud data. Only iPad Pro (2020) or iPhone Pro 12 devices contains this sensor. For other devices only CAD editor available. Also in this version added: - scan density level (0.5k, 2k, 4k pts) - plane and sphere crop actions improvements - background color switching - other bug fixes

This version includes new volume tool, that allows to measure meshing volumes in the CAD editor. Fill or cut measuring are possible. Also with new volume tool you can edit reference plane, to define other "zero" level or non-horizontal plane. Note, that App uses built-in Lidar sensor to measure volumes and capture meshes or point cloud data. Please be careful, only iPad Pro (2020) or iPhone Pro 12 devices contains this sensor. For other devices only Cad editor available. Also in this version we improve: - plane and sphere crop actions - other bug fixes We are trying to make the application better, add new functions, fix bugs. We will be grateful for your suggestions or comments!

In this version we added point clouds capturing. Millions of cloud points will give you more information about the object and can reduce surveying time. Сloud data have the same accuracy as conventional LiDAR measurements (1.5 - 2% relative accuracy). Taking accuracy into account you can define the position of points or length between separate points in CAD editor. All Scanning functionality available on devices with built-in LiDAR sensor. It is iPhone 12 Pro and iPad Pro 2020 devices. For other models only CAD editor is available. Also in this version: + export point cloud data in pts or ply format + added the ability to input point name and select layer during scanning
