Pointcloud functionality

[rbrough]

Good morning. I work for a company that primarily uses Riscan Pro to process laser scans and pointclouds. I am looking at purchasing the Spacemouse Pro, but wanted to know if these products are compatible. Riscan is not on the compatible list, but pointcloud manipulation is similar in characteristics compared to revit and sketchup.

Thank you.

Hi rbrough,

I am afraid similar in characteristics is not enough. The support for the SpaceMouse has to be integrated into the application.

In order to use it with 3Dconnexion devices, support for 3D devices would need to be added inside this software. Adding 3D device support to an application is determined by the application developer rather than by 3Dconnexion. We have an SDK [Development Kit] which any software developer can download at no cost and which allows the integration of 3D device support in proprietary software. Please see here for more details.

We advise our customers to contact the Customer Service of applications that are lacking support and request it be added in future versions of their software. The decision to include 3D support in their development schedule is often influenced by the level of customer interest.

I recommend that you contact [name of manufacturer of the unsupported application] and express your wish to make clear that this is a demand from their customers.
