FARO® (NASDAQ: FARO), the world's most
trusted source for imaging for 3D measurement and imaging
solutions for 3D manufacturing and construction BIM, announces
the release of the advanced BuildIT 2019 software suite. BuildIT
2019 represents the logical evolution of the industry-proven
BuildIT platform, which has provided exceptional value across a
variety of industries. It offers three individual products each
specifically designed for the most challenging quality inspection,
manufacturing and assembly or construction applications. Each
product includes the most flexible and intuitive user interface in
the industry.
While the BuildIT 2019 solution suite is tightly integrated with

BuildIT Metrology 2019 elevates the standard for workflow
optimization and productivity for alignment, inspection, and build
applications by incorporating key customer learnings from the
previous generation that include:
- Point cloud alignment and registration up to 10 times faster
and file size reduction for analyses by up to 70%
- Improved robustness of GD&T evaluation using
feature-specific extraction settings for analysis

BuildIT Projector 2019 allows manufacturers to plan and operate
imaging laser projection and verification workflows to improve the
quality and speed of assembly processes. Together with the FARO
TracerSI Imaging Laser Projector, it is a core component
of the first and only all-in-one solution for laser-assisted
templating and verification.
Included standard in the first generation were groundbreaking
features as In-Process Verification, Feature-Based
Alignment, and Foreign Object & Debris Detection.
BuildIT Projector 2019 enhances these features to create a
completely new, operator-friendly paradigm that includes:
- Report generation that clearly identifies completed tasks and
the results of In-Process Verification.
- Automatic re-alignment of the laser projector where
BuildIT Projector detects that the base part has moved
- A more intuitive user experience through a variety of
enhancements including setup and operation through a joystick
controller
BuildIT Construction 2019

The previous generation version of BuildIT was the first
consolidated software and hardware solution designed from the
ground up as an end-to-end, fully integrated Building Lifecycle
Quality Assurance (QA) and Quality Control (QC) management tool.
BuildIT 2019 offers a unique set of value added enhancements that
include:
- A comprehensive Tank Analysis Package to determine and
identify critical issues in the plant facility that support faster
modification and renovation
- Significant reduction in on-site cycle time from laser scan
projection data preparation to 3D visualization
- Streamlined raw scan import process with Scan Import
feature that automatically detects targets and facilitates faster
alignment with the software
- Numerous other workflow efficiency improvements that include
file size reduction, faster rendering and clipping box
functionality
