October 2012 - FARO Technologies, Inc., the world's most trusted source for 3D measurement technology, has announced the release of FARO CAM2 Gage 2.2 Software. It is the latest software update for the company's leading lines of portable measurement solutions, the FaroArm and FARO Gage. New features like enhanced QuickTools, barcode functionality and temperature compensation dramatically expedite and improve the accuracy of measurement routines. These and over 30 more new features make CAM2 Gage 2.2 one of FARO's most complete solutions for fast, high-accuracy contact measurement.

As part of the newest update to CAM2 Gage, FARO's temperature probe provides feedback on part temperature during measurement routines. This is important since variations in temperature can adversely affect the accuracy of measurements. By closely monitoring and automatically compensating for these changes, CAM2 Gage helps ensure users receive consistent and accurate results despite changing measurement conditions.

The QuickTools functionality permits users to import and use QuickTools programs generated in FARO CAM2 Measure 10.

Barcodes can now be created directly in the CAM2 Gage software and saved together with the inspection plan data. One click with the new FARO barcode reader and the inspection plan is instantly loaded in the CAM2 Gage software. The result is exceptional speed for frequently-repeated, everyday measurements.

"CAM2 Gage 2.2 software presents new features that accelerate and simplify measurement activities. FARO is fully committed to continuously improving our measurement software packages," said Markus Grau, FARO's Product & Business Development Manager for the FARO Gage. "With this latest release, we have reached a new milestone in offering the easiest and most intuitive measurement software available."
