The document discusses the new FARO 3D App Store, which will allow users to access specialized software applications directly within the FARO SCENE software workspace. The App Store aims to simplify software use by providing inexpensive, single-purpose apps that can solve specific tasks. It will utilize a new application programming interface that allows apps to connect to SCENE data and interfaces. Some example planned apps are described, including tools for area measurement, registration quality reporting, and exporting data to Excel. The goal is to provide the right app for users when needed through the new 3D App Store platform.
