Hi everyone, I've been reading several topics on the site, so decided to register and introduce myself. I'm new to scanning in the last three months. I use a Leica HDS6000 with software Cyclone 9.1 and AutoCad 2015. My use of the scanner is solely for 'as built' scans of properties. Once the scans have been joined in Cyclone, I slice the view and change the UCS, which enables me to trace around windows and doors ready for design of a cladding system. I am now looking at purchasing a new scanner and improved software. I have been using a 30 day trial of Autodesk Recap which successfully imported the HDS6000.zfs files, then merged and registered them automatically.

However, the merged scans did not seem that clear in Recap, although it's only a trial version. Plus, I do not know if there was an option to regenerate the merged scans to make them clearer. I would like to find out what the best scanner is for scanning 'as built' properties and the best software setup. Not having to use targets would be a massive improvement and an automated merging and registration process would be fantastic. Now if I could only get some software to actually draw the outlines for me too.

I don't have hands on an RTC360 (yet) but time and a lot of experience tell me it's the best of everything so far. Cyclone is robust and very reportable too. I have been using Faro Scene / Faro data for a year and I won't say anything bad about it. I won't say anything else either.

Hi everyone, I would like to introduce the small tool 'rtlfmstreamer ' to hearing FM radio with a Raspberry Pi. It uses a DVB-T dongle which has to be based on the Realtek RTL2832U. See sdr.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/rtl-sdr for more RTL SDR details. The program 'rtlfmstreamer' uses the DVB-T dongle only as an ADC (simply spoken). All the FM demodulation is done in software and this it is called a software defined radio (SDR). This tool provides the demodulated WAV samples via a simple HTTP server. To hear FM radio you can use KODI, VLC, mplayer or any other media player that supports HTTP WAV streaming.

Just connect to one of the following URLs. Ktb wrote: Follow the 'Building' instructions from the README.md file on the GitHub page:. The first step (sudo apt-get install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev libev-dev) should take care of that problem. Hi ktb, thank you very much, you made me look at a complement that I lack to install where you indicated me(libev-dev ). Just one more thing, the program starts when starting the raspberry??

It's just that I'm using it to put it in the car and I need it to start alone or when starting up. No, I don't think it does by default. The software does not come with an init.d script or systemd unit file.
