Kineo CAM’s Collision Detector Library, KCD™ Chosen for CMM Software Applications

Kineo CAM announced the signature of another corporate agreement with a global software editor to provide him with its collision checker library.

In the frame of this agreement Kineo CAM has granted a license for the integration of KCD™ within all commercial software related to CMM applications. CMM stands for Co-ordinate Measuring Machine and designates systems and robots able to perform various tasks such as scanning, probing, measuring and inspecting 3D objects and surfaces.

“With KCD™ we expect to enhance the capability of our partner’s software solutions to always answer his customers’ needs moving toward higher performances and more features that require an intensive use of collision detection” explains Laurent Maniscalco, CEO of Kineo CAM.

Kineo Collision Detector KCD™ is the high efficiency collision detector from Kineo CAM. It comes as a software library, which allows an easy integration through its C++ programming API; using 3D geometrical data, KCD™ compares two lists of geometrical objects and quickly returns a series of results such as interferences and distances.

In digital 3D mock-up, KCD™ performs static or dynamic clash analysis. For robotic monitoring, KCD™ provides continuous collision avoidance.
