Dear All, I've been a big fan of Geomagic for reconstructing laser-scanned point clouds, fixing up isosurfaced CT scan meshes, and taking point measurements. It was quite expensive but just about affordable. However they've just implemented a big price hike so I think it might be time to see what else is around. I've used Meshlab which is good for some things but I find it crashes on big meshes and its interactive tools are limited. I've heard that RapidForm is even more expensive than Geomagic... What suggestions do people have for alternatives?
