Precision and efficiency: new software for interior fittings

Heerbrugg SG, October 2024

Leica Geosystems has launched new AI-powered software for precise measurements and digital templates. Leica iCON trades enables accurate measurements and 3D models for interior construction, increasing efficiency and reducing errors.

Leica Geosystems, the precision equipment manufacturer based in the St.GallenBodenseeArea, has introduced new software for measuring and constructing objects. The Leica iCON trades software, which is supported by artificial intelligence, can be used to accurately measure rooms and objects, as well as create 2D or 3D models as digital templates, according to a statement from the Swedish Hexagon company. The programs cover the entire measuring and marking out process in interior design. Leica iCON trades is suitable for carpenters, kitchen and stair builders, metalworkers, stonemasons and glaziers. The developed solutions allow high-precision measurements even on polished surfaces and glass. Thanks to the flexible laser distance measurement and efficient line and surface scans and the use of six degrees of freedom (6DoF) technology, which was previously only used in industrial metrology, users can carry out precise measurements and constructions.

Precise measurements can be taken in interior construction and construction diagrams can then be processed using CAD software. In template manufacturing, accurate templates can be created from 2D or 3D measurements and then sent to CNC machines for production. “Both workflows eliminate manual and error-prone measurements, reduce waste and rework and improve efficiency on site,” Agata Fischer, Head of Building Field Solutions at Hexagon Geosystems, is quoted as saying in the press release. “Leica iCON trades speeds up interior construction and digital template production while providing a highly accurate fit that meets professional requirements. With this groundbreaking solution, we are bringing innovation and added value to our customers and replacing traditional and analog measurement methods.”
