BAE Systems has been awarded a contract to build the first 155mm Advanced Gun System (AGS) for the first two destroyer ships built in the DDG 1000 class. In order to properly measure the positioning accuracy of the AGS, BAE Systems has chosen to use the FARO Laser Tracker. What would have taken several people and days using traditional methods can now be completed with two people in just hours.
Autodesk, Inc. (NASDAQ: ADSK), a world leader in 2D and 3D design, engineering and entertainment software for the manufacturing, building and construction, and media and entertainment markets, and FARO (NASDAQ: FARO), the world’s leading provider of portable measurement and imaging solutions, announced their collaboration to add direct integration of point cloud data to AutoCAD 2011 software.
