Picard innovation just unveiled Yuzu for sketchup beta

Picard Innovations launches to the beta version of Yuzu, a software package ideal for measuring spaces and building. Inside the software there is an extensive sketchup plugin allowing sketchup users to connect a laser distance meter (Leica for at present) and produce sketchup models by computing measurements in real time. The software can easily create continual building models from easy floor layouts.

Picard will also include added functionality in future so that the users can generate certified building reports from models generated through Yuzu.

Currently Yuzu is well matched with windows version of SketchUp and SketchUp Pro 8.0 or higher and only metric units are supported at this time.

Yuzu includes the following unique features :
• Find measurement data directly from a Leica Distometer with Bluetooth.
• Create 3D floor plans and easy layouts with the help of general sketchup tools
• Punch holes for doors and windows and produce columns by calculating offsets
• Measured extrude function
• Angle measurement
• Distance measurement (move objects by measuring the space between them)
