Large Scan Data Handling: Dynamic Disk Caching System.
Able to handle hundreds of millions of data points with the highest performance, RapidForm XOS scan software is built from the ground up to minimize system resource use and maximize performance when processing massive data sets from the newest generation of 3D scanners. Using an advanced memory management system (Dynamic Disk Caching), RapidForm XOS scan software dynamically allocates system memory during scan data processing operations. This highly optimized technology allows RapidForm XOS scan software to shatter existing data handling barriers and handle virtually limitless amounts of 3D scan data. The software has been successfully tested to register multiple scans in excess of 300 million points on a dual 3 GHz Xeon PC with 2GB of RAM, and there is no theoretical limitation to the number of points that RapidForm XOS scan software can process.

Performance & Accuracy: True Parallel & Multi-threaded Processing.
With the highest performance and most accurate data processing with cutting edge algorithms, RapidForm XOS scan software truly supports multi-CPU systems. RapidForm XOS scan software's geometric algorithms are designed to fully utilize several CPUs simultaneously. Benchmark test results reveal that it is faster and offers more accurate scan registration than any other popular 3D scanning software. In general, RapidForm XOS scan software is 3-4 times as fast and 4-5 times more accurate than comparable applications. In a typical real world application test, RapidForm XOS scan software was able to import, triangulate, register, merge, and decimate a 100 million point data set in less than 40 minutes. RapidForm XOS scan software's advanced registration algorithms minimize overall error distribution among overlapped scan shots and preserve original crease edges after merging most accurately.

Leading Edge User Interface: Intuitive, Easy-to-Use GUI.
Flexible, dynamic self-learnable interface. One of most distinctive features that users will quickly notice when using RapidForm XOS scan software is the enhancement in the user interface for the ease-of-use of the software. Using logical selection and entity trees, RapidForm XOS scan software presents the user with all the information he needs concisely and unobtrusively. Using state-of-the-art 3D viewport based menu trees, the software eliminates the need for pop-up windows and minimizes user operations needed to run a command. The figure below shows a typical screenshot of RapidForm XOS scan software, with multiple customizable 3D views, selection icons, the project tree, a memory & disk usage indicator, command history window, backup and restore functions and console window.

RapidForm XOS scan software Scan allows users to clean up data from scanners, align multiple point clouds to each other using our industry-leading registration algorithms, triangulate the point clouds into polygon meshes and merge multiple scan shots into one complete 3D model. RapidForm XOS scan software is completely compatible with rapidform2006 systems, and polygon mesh models generated by RapidForm XOS scan software can be transferred to rapidform2006 on-the-fly for downstream data processing such as polygon optimization, CAD data generation and inspection. The functionalities of RapidForm XOS scan software are similar to the Scan Workbench fund in rapidform2006, but RapidForm XOS scan software is a totally new product with significant increases in speed, data handling and accuracy.

RapidForm XOS scan software consists of a number of fundamental functionalities for initial processing of 3D scan data, such as point cloud cleaning, triangulation, registration & merging and decimation. RapidForm XOS scan software is designed to take in data from virtually any device that generates point clouds or polygon meshes, and handle it effectively no matter what its size.

The Most Accurate, Robust, and Fastest Algorithms for Registration & Merging
Registering (aligning) multiple scans from different angles is one of the most fundamental needs in 3D scan processing. RapidForm XOS scan software's registration technology consistently produces the tightest fits with the least amount of error between separate data sets. The advanced algorithms examine the overlapping surface geometry or volumetric properties of each polygon mesh or point cloud to register them to one another. RapidForm XOS scan software's registration & merging supports true parallel processing, and guarantees the best quality results.

Comprehensive Feature Set for Point Cloud Processing
The collection of tools in the RapidForm XOS scan software Scan offer fast and accurate optimization & preparation of point clouds from any 3D scanning device. The extensive cleanup tools easily remove scan errors, automatically find scanning direction for unorganized data sets, intelligently reduce data size, triangulate, accurately register and merge multiple scans into one, high quality polygon mesh model.

Point Streaming: A Powerful Tool for Web-based Viewing of Large 3D Data Sets
RapidForm XOS scan software offers Point Streaming, a state-of-art technology for effective viewing of massive 3D scan data on the web. Optimized 3D scan data can be published using the RapidForm XOS scan software Point Streaming (RPS) format and then directly posted onto any web environment. Users can share huge 3D scan data sets via the internet.
