(FARO: Lake Mary, FL) -- FARO Technologies Inc., developer and manufacturer of 3D measurement, imaging, and realization technology, has released FARO CAM2 SmartInspect 1.2, the industry’s first full-featured portable software for basic geometric measurements, without CAD, for laser trackers and measuring arms.

The release reinforces FARO’s continued commitment to simplify 3D measurement. CAM2 SmartInspect 1.2 will now interface with FARO’s Laser Trackers, providing a simple and efficient solution for those who require the accuracy and large measurement volume provided by the capabilities of laser trackers, but not the complexity of CAD-based software.

CAM2 SmartInspect 1.2 has been optimized to run on all Microsoft Windows-based Touch PCs or Touchpads, providing users a new way to interact with inspection data and measurement devices. The addition of touch capability makes the software ideal for fully mobile measurement applications and establishes it as the first portable metrology software for FARO Laser Trackers and FaroArms on the market.
