PRESS RELEASE — New Gexcel 4D INSPECTOR® for automatic 3D measurement and inspection of buildings and infrastructures

9th October, 2014, Berlin, INTERGEO — At INTERGEO, Gexcel has announced the new 4D INSPECTOR®: the perfect solution to automatically monitor possible deformations and get results in real time.


  What for?  

  • For automatic 3D inspection of buildings, tunnels, industrial plants, complex structures, etc.
  • For surveying and monitoring large construction sites, big infrastructures, also when frequent 3D surveys are needed
  How?  
  1. Several static laser scanners, located in different positions, can be fully controlled by a remote control unit
  2. The operator can schedule a scanning agenda and 4D INSPECTOR® automatically drives the scanners located in the surveying site
  3. The data are downloaded, directly via Ethernet, to the 4D INSPECTOR® control unit
  4. In real time, the 4D INSPECTOR® evaluates and visualizes the deformations obtained from a comparison between the scans and the reference model
  More:  
  • The scanners can be mounted inside a safety enclosure (Scan Armor®) and protected by direct damages
  • All the point clouds used to check the deformation are stored in the control unit and can be used for detailed data analysis
  • 4D INSPECTOR® actually works with Faro and Z+F static laser scanner

4D INSPECTOR® was created in the Gexcel's research laboratories located in the Polaris Technology Park of Sardegna Ricerche (Pula, Sardinia – Italy).

PRESS RELEASE — Gexcel announces the new LineUp® Pro tool based on the exclusive Gexcel AutoScanRegistration® technology

3rd October, 2014, Brescia (Italy) — Gexcel Srl (software and solutions provider in the Geomatics sectors) announces the release of the new LineUp® Pro based on the exclusive Gexcel AutoScanRegistration® technology.

The AutoScanRegistration® technology allows the automatic alignment of series of scans that have at least  a 20% overlap. With the AutoScanRegistration® approach, it gets very easy to align scans without targets (i.e. when it is difficult or impossible to take on field target positioning).

  LineUp® Pro  
Import your overlapped scans and run the AutoScanRegistration® algorithm! 
Several tests have shown an incredible high level of convergence.

  • Installed on JRC 3D Reconstructor® FORENSIC new package
  • Installed on PointR3 2.0 new version
  • All the features of the LineUp® included
  • The unique Automatic Alignment Target-Free included

  LineUp®  
  • Installed on JRC 3D Reconstructor® 3.0 new versions
  • Installed on PointR3 2.0 new version
  • Perfect to manage all the alignment procedures: point clouds importing and filtering, automatic target detection, geo-referencing, scans alignment per groups, cloud to cloud best fitting alignment, bundle adjustment.

  To know more, come and visit us at Intergeo Berlin (Booth C4.001 | All 4.1) !
