| Re-Engineering Point Clouds
Deriving properly structured objects from arbitrary and unstructured collections of coordinate points as generated by 3D laser digitizers. These objects can be structured as polygonal entities or as NURBS surfaces, which can subsequently be manufactured by one of the CAM methods. This is reverse engineering of physical objects at its best. |

| STEP Translator
STEP, the Standard for the Exchange of Product Model Data, is a comprehensive ISO standard (ISO 10303) that describes how to represent and exchange digital product information. It defines a neutral file format for representation of configuration control design data for a product. It was developed by an international community for all engineering data, to cover a product's entire life cycle, from design to analysis, manufacture, quality control testing, inspection and product support functions.

The generation of images that look like they were done by free hand. That is, a variety of effects can be applied to rendered images to produce expressionistic pictures that do not look like they were done on the computer.
