OREANDA-NEWS. The new technology extracts planes automatically from 3-D point-cloud data captured using a tablet equipped with a 3-D sensor. The technology registers a sequence of 3-D data by automatically finding and associating identical planes and points in different frames to reconstruct an accurate 3-D model of an entire area. A software processes the 3-D data in real time at a speed of four frames per second.

The 3-D models can be used, for example, to measure distances between specific locations or avoid collisions when moving an object, enabling highly efficient planning.
