SYCODE launches reverse engineering plug-ins for AutoCAD and Rhinoceros

Panaji - 24th Sep, 2007 - SYCODE today launched reverse engineering plug-ins for AutoCAD and Rhinoceros at a highly competitive price.

"Reverse engineering is basically reconstructing a solid or a surface from organized or unorganized point cloud data”, explains Deelip Menezes, owner of SYCODE. “The software tools to achieve are often high priced. At SYCODE we have developed cutting edge reverse engineering technology and are pleased to offer it as plug-ins for AutoCAD and Rhinoceros for a fraction of the price of other offerings. Priced at 250 USD each, these plug-ins are value for money.”

The reverse engineering plug-ins for AutoCAD and Rhino are called Point Cloud for AutoCAD and Point Cloud for Rhino respectively. These plug-ins give AutoCAD and Rhino the ability to reconstruct the geometry of an object from a point cloud which describes it. These plug-ins can drape a surface over a point cloud or wrap a mesh around a point cloud. Draping a surface is similar to laying a piece of cloth over an object. The surface is deformed to take the shape of the object along the drape direction. A surface can be draped along one of the six orthogonal directions (top, bottom, front, back, right and left) or a custom user specified direction. Wrapping a mesh is similar to wrapping cloth all around an object to close it completely. The plug-ins have the ability to wrap a mesh around a concave or a convex point cloud.
