- ClearEdge3D will showcase their automated feature extraction software at SPAR 2010.
- EdgeWise can now run in batch mode and extract ground surfaces.
- They are also going to offer a 64 bit version.
One of the more innovative technologies that will be showcased at SPAR 2010 next week in Houston, TX will be from ClearEdge3D. Their EdgeWise software caught a lot of people’s attention at last year’s conference. Extracting CAD objects from a point cloud is still essentially a manual process. EdgeWise offers the ability to automate this process, at least for planar surfaces.That’s where the technology was the last time I checked in with this early stage start-up.
From a recent press release it appears that they have been listening to customers and making some important enhancements. These include batch processing and multiple-scan “ground extraction” capabilities, which sounds like they have moved beyond just building faces. The other item of note was the announcement of a 64 bit version. This is certain to provide a significant productivity boost.
So I am off to SPAR tomorrow morning. I hope to keep everyone informed and to make a number of new contacts. I look forward to seeing you there.
