In their own words
Creaform.OS
Creaform.OS is integrated operating software supplied with Creaform 3D measuring and scanning devices. It supports Creaform scanners, optical CMMs, and probe or photogrammetry workflows, with real-time capture, mesh reconstruction, and exports to IGES, STEP, and DXF on Windows 11. Its interface, embedded content, tools, and tutorials are intended to help users learn scanners and optical CMMs. The Metrology Suite adds Scan-to-CAD, Inspection, Automation, and Dynamic Tracking modules. Scan-to-CAD extracts features and supports CAD modeling from scan data for product development, reverse engineering, and additive manufacturing. Inspection handles dimensional quality checks. Automation provides a digital-twin environment for automated measurement and quality control. Dynamic Tracking measures multiple objects’ positions and orientations over time for assembly monitoring and robot calibration. Creaform.OS Viewer is a free download for viewing meshes, inspection programs, and results. The main software is paid with pricing on request.
