    Looking for SOftware for FARO

    Hi


    we have an quite old FARO in our classrooms which nobody can use because there is no software for it (what a shame!)
    It says, it is a FARO Platinum, but it has a touch probe as well as somethink like a laser scanner.
    Probably FARO changed the product line...

    Anyway. I'm looking for a cheap software to let that fellow run again.
    Freeware would be very nice, but anything else is welcome.

    Of course I checked faro.com and I know that I could use geomagic, RapidForm and stuff like that, but they are very expensive.

    Probably here someone knows a alternative?

    THX

    Try Rhino. Maybe your school already has it, or can buy a student licence.

    Since you are an educator, contact your nearest distributor and ask for an exception. They should supply software for free or a discounted price.

    We have Rhino, and it works, but just withe the tactile probe ball, not with the laserscanner.
    And of course, we would like to use that as well
