Abstract
CyliCon is a Windows-based Application for creating, updating and managing 3D computer models of factories from input digital images. The software is geared towards industrial piping environments. The resulting 3D representation of factory, being reconstructed from camera images of the site, is `as-built' and reflects the reality. This can be used for the purpose of updating and maintaining the industrial site. In addition, special attention has been given to the ease of use, portability and adaptability of the software. A well-designed User Interface makes the process of reconstructing a 3D model simple and fast. CyliCon is also easy to integrate into an existing factory data and workflow, since it can read data from and export data to a variety of commercial databases and formats (CAD, VRML, XML, etc...). Ultimately CyliCon is a programmable platform, which can be customized by customers to their own needs.
