The Cyclone FIELD 360 app is a robust tool that enables control of the BLK2GO and BLK2GO PULSE scanners, provides a first-person view of captures, allows instant preview of captured data, ensures quality assurance and control, and aligns data directly in the field.
With the latest update, BLK2GO and BLK2GO PULSE kinematic scanners can sync with Cyclone FIELD 360. This allows for the creation of Jobs, Links, GeoTags, etc., where all the added information will be synced back to the scanner. This ensures a smooth and efficient workflow from the field to the office when data is imported from BLK2GO scanners into Cyclone REGISTER 360 PLUS. The benefits from the following features added in FIELD 360 include:
Full transfer: All scan data and edits made in the Cyclone FIELD 360 app will be transferred to Cyclone REGISTER 360 PLUS, including scan names, links, tags, clipping masks, and measurements.
Job structure: The scans will be organized in a hierarchical structure that matches the Cyclone REGISTER 360 PLUS Projects, making it easy to navigate and manage data.
Links: The links created in the Cyclone FIELD 360 app will be imported as pre-registration links in Cyclone REGISTER 360 PLUS, saving time and improving accuracy.
GeoTags: The tags added in the Cyclone FIELD 360 app will be imported as annotations in Cyclone REGISTER 360 PLUS, enriching the point cloud with multimedia information such as images, audio, and video.
Export options: Point cloud data from the Cyclone FIELD 360 app can be exported to various formats such as E57, and PTX, and shared with Leica TruView Cloud. With this update, the trajectory can also be exported to CSV, as well as detail images to JPEG, and the point cloud can be uploaded to Reality Cloud Studio.
The support of BLK2GO and BLK2GO PULSE in Cyclone FIELD 360 has enhanced the field-to-office workflow with a kinematics scanner by adding the possibility to attach additional tags (image, video, text, voice messages) to the point cloud data. Additionally, multiple BLK2GO and BLK2GO PULSE point cloud data can be aligned straight in the field and create cloud-to-cloud links, which will be further transferred to Cyclone REGISTER 360 PLUS. With this update, a seamless enhanced workflow from field to office with the BLK2GO and BLK2GO PULSE scanners, Cyclone FIELD 360, and Cyclone REGISTER 360 can be enjoyed.
