What is Leica Cyclone REGISTER 360?
Leica Cyclone REGISTER 360 represents decades of point cloud processing expertise from Hexagon/Leica. The software is purpose-built for registering and processing laser scan data, with automatic registration powered by VIS (Visual Inertial System) data from RTC360 and BLK scanners.
Beyond registration, Cyclone includes tools for measurement, annotation, and publishing to TruView for stakeholder access. CloudWorx plugins extend functionality to AutoCAD, Revit, and other platforms.
At THE FUTURE 3D, we use Cyclone REGISTER 360 for all Leica scanner workflows, leveraging VIS for automatic registration and TruView for client delivery. The software's reliability and accuracy make it essential for survey-grade projects.
