nat (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: 劉 栄駿; hereinafter “the Company”) is pleased to announce the official release of the web version of Scanat,” an AI surveying app that utilizes the LiDAR sensor for smartphones developed and provided by the Company.

■Development Background

In response to requests from many customers who told us, “We want to be able to use the software on a PC just like we do on the app” and “We want to share 3D models with our partners,” we have developed these new features.

It has been about a year since the beta release. With the support of many users and the valuable feedback we’ve received, we’ve continued to make improvements.

In particular, the feature that allows users to share 3D models created with " Scanat " via a single web URL has been very well received for its ability to facilitate smooth information sharing among relevant parties. In addition, we have officially released the automatic drawing output feature for "Normal Scan," which was highly requested by many users, following our in-house research and development efforts.

This feature marks an important first step toward streamlining the automatic conversion of 3D models into drawings. We hope many users will take advantage of this feature and experience the new possibilities it offers.
