(API: Rockville, MD) -- Automated Precision Inc. (API) has released the newest generation of its I-360 suite of handheld probing and scanning accessories to the Radian Laser Tracker.

Sensing robotics automation integration

All three models in the product family have been updated. New features include:
• The wireless probe-only I-Probe now offers a third port for attaching styli. This probe port is at the top of the instrument’s sensor head, which offers accuracies greater than 3-thouandths of an inch (75µ).
• The scanning model, I-Scan II, features a new HD camera that can collect points across surfaces that are traditionally difficult for scanners to measure, such as highly reflective or high-contrast black-and-white areas.
• The combination I-360 unit offers all the features provided in the I-Probe and I-Scan.

These new models immediately replace the current I-360 suite and are available at the same pricing.

Innovation driven by customers

Several of the improvements made to this generation of the I-360 were provided from customer feedback. API engineers took suggestions to improve not only the accuracy, but also make it more ergonomic, according to API product manager Zach Ryan.
