Share point cloud data from Cyclone FIELD 360 to TruView Cloud

As part of the Leica Geosystems 3D Reality Capture Solution, the Leica Cyclone FIELD 360 mobile-device app was introduced to seamlessly link the 3D data acquisition in the field and final data registration with Leica Cyclone REGISTER family post-processing office software and downstream applications including the TruView and CloudWorx families. When onsite, users can automatically capture, pre-align and examine scan and image data directly from their chosen mobile device. The user interface of Cyclone FIELD 360 combines easy handling of complex calculations with a graphical user guidance, offering a remarkable user experience, even for novice users.

TruView Cloud is a secure, Leica Geosystems-hosted service to view, measure and annotate your digital reality data on any browser and on any device, at any time. With TruView Cloud, users around the world can communicate about projects in real-time with a simple and intuitive tool suitable for reality capture experts and new users alike.

With the release of Cyclone FIELD 360 v2.2 and TruView Cloud 2020, users can now publish Cyclone FIELD 360 projects directly to their TruView Cloud account from anywhere with an internet connection to provide collaborators around the world near real-time access to the rich project data including measurable images, layers of rich visualization and Tags that contain useful notes and project context.

The introduction of this new feature makes it possible, for the first time, for off-site project collaborators to access, view and analyse the work as it progresses and provide feedback to ensure that all areas of interest have been captured to project specifications. Users will also see benefits in communicating with clients to share point cloud data including Tags directly from the field, as the clients can virtually visit the project site from any location to get a dimensionally correct and photorealistic view of the digital reality data.

Publishing to TruView Cloud from within Cyclone FIELD 360 uses the existing simple interface of the mobile application. Simply select the bundle of Setups from the Bundles list, select Publish and enter your login credentials. Your project will be streamed to the cloud.Then visit your customised TruView Cloud URL and access your digital reality data from a laptop, desktop computer, or any smartphone or tablet. Cyclone FIELD 360 is the central field software for RTC360 and BLK360 and both laser scanners benefit from this new feature.

TruView Cloud is offered as a subscription service in 1 year increments and is infinitely scalable through the purchase of add-ons for extra storage.

The Cyclone FIELD 360 mobile-device app is free to download. A valid Cyclone REGISTER or Cyclone REGISTER 360 or Cyclone REGISTER 360 (BLK Edition) licence is required to activate Cyclone FIELD 360. Download the Cyclone FIELD 360 app from the App Store and Google Play .
