What’s New

This is a minor release that introduces several additional features, enhancements, and bug fixes to improve customer experience. Key highlights of this release include the addition of 3D tags to fill gaps (iOS only), the ability to view last 3/5/7 scans, a new option to initiate linking from the job data browser, various user interface and user experience (UI/UX) improvements and overall system stability enhancements.  

3D GeoTags

Version 6.0.3 brings back the capability to use Apple LiDAR data for creating 3D tags, enabling users to fill gaps in data from existing setups. The LiDAR data is registered to the reference setup and visualised in real time. Gap-filling data collected with Cyclone FIELD 360 can be seamlessly imported into Cyclone or Cyclone REGISTER 360 version 2022.1 or newer. 

View 3/5/7 scans

The option has been added in the settings menu to control scan visibility. This is a two-step configuration process:  

1. Select a Dynamic Visibility Mode: 

• Follow Selected  

• Follow Latest  

2. Choose the number of scans to display (3, 5 or 7) 

Next select Dynamic visibility scans setting between 3, 5 or 7 scans

Linking from the Data Browser

Users can now initiate linking directly from the job data browser. This option is accessible via the three-dot menu for each scan. After selecting the desired first scan, the data browser will automatically collapse, allowing users to select the second setup from the Map View to start the alignment process. 

Additionally, the scan data structure within the Data Browser has been improved. Unlinked setups are now always displayed at the top of the list, and sub-categories (e.g., linked and unlinked) are collapsible for better organization. 

Additional Imprevements

• License Information: License type and expiration details are now available to the user in the app.

• Optimize button: The ”Optimize” button is now highlighted in red if the link has not been optimized.
