The software interface is designed to be simple and intuitive so that users without any 3D metrology background can be easily trained.

Software Version

  • Basic Version: All functionality with images
  • Pro Version: Extended version with all functionality, in addition to the 3D viewer and on-screen dimensioning

Live On-Screen 3D View of Measurements

With the Live on-screen view, users can see the results of their measurements shown graphically in projection plane views. The graphical view can also be rotated to show a 3D representation of all the measured features.

On-Screen Dimensioning

Interact directly with the graphical view to create dimensions and constructions needed to extract information that cannot be measured directly. Arrange the dimensions relative to the measurements to document results with clarity.

Whisker and Tolerances

Whiskers and tolerance graphics can be displayed on individual measured features to show detailed error distribution with colors that highlight the specific areas of the part that are out of tolerance.

Labels

Labels can be configured to automatically appear in the graphical view to provide immediate feedback on measurement results.

Temperature Probe

The temperature probe provides feedback on part temperature during measurement routines. This is important since variations in temperature can adversely affect the accuracy of measurements. By closely monitoring and automatically compensating for these changes, CAM2 SmartInspect helps to ensure that users receive consistent and accurate results despite changing measurement conditions.

Barcode Functionality

Barcodes can be created directly in the CAM2 SmartInspect software and saved together with the inspection plan data. One-click with the new FARO barcode reader and the inspection plan is instantly loaded in the CAM2 SmartInspect software. The result is the exceptional speed for frequently-repeated, everyday measurements.

CAM2 SMARTINSPECT Features

New – Touch-Capable Use

The software runs on Microsoft Windows™ based PCs or Touchpads as the first portable metrology software for FARO Laser Tracker and Arm.

Smart Suggestion Box

Suggestions constantly provide users with guidance on what operations can be conducted with objects they have selected. This allows new users to get hints on the capabilities that are available to them while Expert users can exploit this feature to speed up their workflow.

Quick Tool Import

The QuickTools functionality permits to import and use QuickTools programs generated in the FARO CAM2 2018 software.

Repeated Part Measurement

Once a part has been measured, those measurements can be repeated with a single click. Using the Image View mode, the second measurement can be performed by any user.

Picture Support for Guided Repeat Measurement

CAM2 SmartInspect offers the ability to associate real part pictures where markers can be added to provide clear visual guidance to measurement operators. This enables anyone to measure a part once a routine has been defined.

Barcode Functionality

Barcodes can be created directly in the CAM2 SmartInspect software and saved together with the inspection plan data. The result is the exceptional speed for frequently-repeated, everyday measurements.

Temperature Probe

The temperature probe automatically provides a real-time measurement of the temperature of the parts you are inspecting. Thus the CAM2 SmartInspect software can compensate for the effect that temperature variations have on measurement activities.

New – Move Device

Users can move their device during the measurement process and measure their part from different positions.

New – Voice Operation

The voice operation feature enables users to provide instructions using voice commands, allowing for hands-free operation and resulting in reduced measurement times and improved mobility.

New – Audible Feedback

The audible feedback function provides real-time relay, alerting the user when a bad measurement has occurred or when the laser tracker beam has been broken.
