Intelligent Pattern Digitizing

We know that each office, workshop and factory floor is different in terms of ceiling height, available wall or floor space, light, dust and so on. iDigit suits every working environment thanks to its flexible configuration. It can be either permanently fixed on a wall, mounted on a mobile adjustable stand, or laid on a table, floor or a CNC machine wither temporarily or permanently. The camera can be either held by hand, mounted on a tripod or on a camera boom that’s fixed on a wall or ceiling.

iDigit is designed and developed to work in a wide range of environments, not just to be used in favorable “habitats” or showcased in ideal laboratory conditions with vanilla patterns. Unlike hardware-based digitizers (traditional table & mouse digitizers or those which use a large format scanner for image acquisition) that eventually develop a fault or completely break down, iDigit stays with you for as long as you need pattern digitization in your business, as it is completely software based. Our board doesn’t have any electronic or mechanical components and the system doesn’t require any specialty camera.

iDigit uses the circles printed on our board to automatically correct any environmental variables such as distance, angle, light and blur. This enables the system to provide consistently accurate results with 1:1 scale. The system doesn’t need to be pre-calibrated during installation, which makes it easy to set up and relocate if needed. Most importantly, as each picture is calibrated in the background automatically, the camera doesn’t have to be fixed in relation to the board, therefore it can be used hand-held too.

Speed is another essential criterion in digitizing. iDigit digitizes patterns in only a few seconds upon loading the picture. However, speed isn’t only limited to the initial processing. That’s where iDigit’s rich functionality, which is embedded in a simple UI comes handy. You can use these functions not only to make alterations or additions to your project and patterns such as smoothing, seam allowance, mirroring etc. but also to create patterns from scratch, even if they’re not in the picture.

iDigit corrects optical distortions caused by various factors such as camera lens, angle and distance between the camera and target in order to provide millimetric correct results. Reading the camera’s optical parameters from the image, iDigit automatically makes the necessary adjustments in the background and eliminates all perturbations.

Having a super car with the dashboard of a Boeing 737 wouldn’t serve well. In fact most super cars have a simpler cockpit compared to ordinary cars, as most of the features that make them a super car are intrinsic, hidden behind the user interface. iDigit comes with rich functionality packed in a simple, intuitive UI which makes it easy to learn. The training takes around 1 hour, after which the user is able to do some real work.

iDigit can export General DXF, AAMA DXF, SVG, HPGL and PDF, which can be fully customized in terms of layers. It’s even possible to transfer patterns to CAD programs such as Illustrator without saving any files, simply using copy-paste. This enables the user to export only what they need, exactly in the layers they need to be, which ensures compatibility with their existing software and machinery. iDigit can export Arc entities in addition to polylines, which ensures the exported patterns have extremely smooth curves.

We believe this is the most important criterion that applies to any product/service offered by any company, because without excellent support all the technical advantages of a product would lose their significance. As a customer-oriented company we put customers at the center of everything and exceeding expectations in support has always played a key role in our success.
