A+W
In collaboration with Viprotron, A+W launched iShape, which offers glass processors flexible solutions for generating digital data from templates. Older systems required special equipment and calibration, which is expensive and time-consuming. iShape is a user-friendly, easy-to-use app that allows users to photograph templates using a smartphone surrounded by reference points. The reference points fasten to a wall and correct any photographic distortions. Then the image is emailed and displayed in A+W CAD Designer, where it transforms into a stream of points defined by arcs and lines.
