MoveInspect - Version 7
25 October 2016
New calibration method, more interfaces, redesign of the user interface – the latest version 7 of the MoveInspect software offers a lot of new features and comfortable benefits.
Thanks to the calibration with both fixed reference field and scale bar, large-scale measuring volumes are now calibrated with the highest precision possible. The new method “reference field and object” is especially suitable for multiple camera arrays, i.e. AICON’s 3D Arena, und allows for considerable increase of accuracy.
