HighRES Inc standardizes reverse engineering software tools ReverseEngineering.com®, ensuring compatibility across 10 top 3D CAD/CAM/CAE software providers


HighRES, Inc., DBA ReverseEngineering.com, to Standardize UX Workflow and Pioneer Advancements in Reverse Engineering Software Tools - Unveiling "RE APP" Plug-ins and Add-ins for Seamless CMM/PCMM integration with 10 Major 3D CAD Software Platforms in 2024.

ReverseEngineering.com, a trailblazer in cutting-edge reverse engineering software solutions, proudly solidifies its legacy of excellence dating back to 1995. The company's impactful contributions have been instrumental in shaping the evolution of reverse engineering, marked by a significant history deeply intertwined with collaborations with NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) and leading 3D CAD/CAM/CAE software developers.

In 1991, Braxton Carter, a key figure in the US Performance Engineering Program (US PEP), collaborated with the U.S. Department of Commerce and NIST in the groundbreaking "SHOP OF THE 90'S" initiative. His involvement led to the development of revolutionary Reverse Engineering software, connecting Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMMs) to 3D CAD systems. This marked a milestone as the first CAD system to utilize a connected CMM, ushering in a new era in 3D computer modeling. The technology allowed CMMs to trace physical objects into CAD wireframe splines and then be modeled into surfaces, laying the foundation for CNC machining and the basis of CAD-integrated reverse engineering.

This historic breakthrough eliminated the need for IGES (Initial Graphics Exchange Specification) as a data translation event, resolving issues related to scale and translation errors. The technology was applied to create symmetrical handcrafted Bell helmets for the 1992 Olympic Velodrome cycling and Speed skiing events, ephasizing safety for athletes.



In 1995, Christian Moore joined forces with Braxton Carter, founding HighRES Inc. as a specialty technology company focused on reverse engineering 3D CAD. Moore's extensive experience, including a role as the director of sales in a startup and years with corporate entities like IBM, brought valuable insight and drive to realize the future vision of product commercialization for the proprietary high-res reverse engineering software. By 1998, Moore and Carter applied the technology to revolutionize Snowboard helmets for the 1998 Nagano Olympics.
