FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
MENSI AWARDS VISUAL PRECISION PARTNER OF THE YEAR 3D Scanning and Modeling Developer Recognizes Service Partner’s Outstanding Performance DARATECH PLANT 2000, Houston, January 24, 2000 − MENSI, Inc., the world’s leading developer and supplier of 3-D laser scanners and 3-D modeling software for as-built and real world data capture and modeling has named Visual Precision, Inc. of Houston, Texas as its 1999 Service Partner of the Year. A charter member of MENSI’s Service Partner Network (MSPN), Visual Precision, Inc. provides industrial as-built data collection, modeling and consulting services for firms nationwide. Visual Precision has been recognized by MENSI for providing exceptional customer service and support. According to Kenneth Shain, CEO for MENSI, Inc., “Matt Craig of Visual Precision has consistently demonstrated the extraordinary value he provides to both the customers of services and to the suppliers of the technologies that he utilizes to provide those services. We consider Matt to be a valuable member of our team.” As part of his award, Matt will receive an all expense paid trip to Paris, France. Matthew Craig, President of Visual Precision, Inc. says, “MENSI has proven that they stand by their partners to assure the most efficient use of their scanner and software products. I appreciate their receptivity to field requirements and the support they have offered me in building my business.” Mr. Craig has worked in the engineering and construction industry for over 20 years, providing as-built data collection, modeling and consulting services the last five years for industry stalwarts such as Stone & Webster Engineering. Members of the MENSI Service Partner Network represent a wide array of application disciplines serving a diverse cross-section of the 3D data capture and modeling marketplace including power and plant, mechanical engineering, historic preservation and cinematic special effects. Benefits of the program include co-marketing and technical assistance, project referrals and web links, to name but a few. MENSI produces both hardware and software products. Its 3-D scanning sensor uses laser technology to capture physical objects such as structures and converts them into digital point cloud data for follow-on processing. Its software program processes point data from its scanner or any source into 3-D models. The user can then manipulate this model, extract its geometry, and output it to 3rd party CAD and plant design programs such as Microstation, AutoCAD, PDS or PDMS. It is ideal for companies that need to capture as-built geometries and physical relationships when traditional drawings are inadequate or unavailable. Used extensively in electrical power, oil and gas, chemical, mining, metrological and process plant applications, the system also has wide appeal in cultural and architectural applications involving restoration projects of historical artifacts and structures.
