""Scanr" Sketchup Plugin Announced.

01/04/2009

Cadyou.com is proud to announce it's first, free Sketchup plugin "Scanr". In development for the 3 months this plugin will allow you to use any optical mouse as a simple 3d scanner, enabling small objects to be scanned directly into the Sketchup software!

Optical mice work by detecting small differences in the surface of your desk as you move them. By directly accessing the optical 'eye', this unique plugin can capture 3d forms from the light and shade cast as you move the mouse around an object.

In addition we expect to release an update later this month which will allow laptop owners to use the software simply by rubbing an object over the surface of their trackpad!

We can't wait to see what people will do with this ability. "Scanr" will be released on April 2nd as a free download, only on cadyou.com."
