A+W Software’s second-generation A+W iShape II allows for quicker fabrication, greater functionality and increased user-friendliness. Users place A+W’s reference L-angles inside the template’s perimeter. Users can then use the app to photograph the template, calculate data in the cloud, and receive feedback on the template’s quality, or a “confidence factor.” Users can email the file to A+W CAD Designer, where imperfections can be massaged out with the line tool.
