SuPAR at a Glance
Key facts about the augmented reality inspection platform built for manufacturing.
AR Dynamic & Real-Time Tracking
SuPAR enables instant visual inspection of physical objects by superimposing CAD models onto real-time camera imagery. Strong dynamic tracking provides perfect nonstop visualization even in limited environments, making quality inspection more efficient and reliable.
Color Map Visualization
AR color map projection utilizing scanning data for precise visual inspections. Create deviation labels with a fully customizable color scale, plus advanced Gap & Flush analysis visualization for the highest quality standards.
AR Interactive Visual Inspection
Inspectors use the iPad to visualize virtual instructions, checkpoints, or models directly on physical parts. Identify production errors such as missing elements and position errors instantly on the shop floor.
- Geometry control on physical parts
- Guided checkpoint navigation
- Missing and extra parts detection
- Rough position error identification
AR Physical-Digital Mock-Up & Stages
Control the visibility of CAD model parts at different assembly steps. Helps inspectors focus on the next component to be assembled, ensuring assembly correctness and saving time.
- AR Physical-Digital mock-up for fixture assembly
- Build and check fixtures without paper manuals
- Virtual element visualization for component positioning
Digital Twin Inspection Review & Free Placement
Place the digital twin freely within the real environment. Review it directly on the physical component, enriched with annotations and inspection templates created on the real object.
- Digital twin free placement in real environment
- Review with annotations and information overlay
- Inspection templates created on real components
Digital Communication: PMI Import & Inspection Templates
Bring design intelligence into quality processes by visualizing PMI and CAD data in real time. Guided inspection templates lead operators through key checkpoints with clarity and consistency.
- PMI and CAD data visualization in real time
- Guided inspection templates with checkpoints
- Multiple inspection flows per project
- One-click digital reporting (PDF/Excel/Word)

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about SuPAR augmented reality inspection.
What hardware do I need to use SuPAR?
SuPAR App runs on iPad Pro with LiDAR sensor. SuPAR Composer runs on any Windows PC for project preparation. SuPAR Web Viewer works in any modern web browser with no installation required.
How long does it take to set up an inspection?
SuPAR can be deployed in under 30 minutes. Once a project is prepared in Composer, inspectors simply load it on the iPad and begin inspecting — no complex calibration or setup procedures required.
What industries is SuPAR designed for?
SuPAR is used across automotive, transportation, aerospace and defense, heavy industry, injection molding, and machinery manufacturing. Any industry that requires visual inspection of physical parts against CAD data can benefit from SuPAR.
What report formats does SuPAR generate?
SuPAR generates professional digital reports in PDF, Excel, Word, and 3D formats. Reports include photos, 3D visuals, annotations, and inspection results — generated with one click directly after inspection.
Which CAD file formats does SuPAR support?
SuPAR supports CATIA, JT, CGR, and OBJ file formats. CAD data is imported through SuPAR Composer, which automatically generates tracking geometry for AR alignment during inspections.
Does the iPad need an internet connection during inspection?
No. SuPAR works fully offline during inspection. Projects are synced to the iPad beforehand. Reports and data can be uploaded when connectivity is available.
How does SuPAR compare to traditional 2D drawing inspection?
SuPAR reduces inspection time by up to 75% compared to traditional paper-based or 2D drawing methods. It eliminates manual cross-referencing, provides guided checkpoints, and generates digital reports automatically.
Can I request a live demo of SuPAR?
Yes. Contact us through the Request Demo form or email info@cdmvision.com to schedule a personalized demonstration. We can show SuPAR working with your specific parts and use cases.
What is Augmented Reality Inspection?
Augmented Reality Visual Inspection for Manufacturing
SuPAR is an augmented reality-based interactive visual inspection technology developed for manufacturing environments. By overlaying 3D CAD data onto physical products in real time, SuPAR enables instant verification during assembly and quality inspection processes.
Assembly deviations, missing components, and quality issues can be detected quickly and accurately by operators and quality teams on the shop floor. With its fast setup, tablet-based mobility, remote access, and digital reporting capabilities, SuPAR strengthens operational control and accelerates decision-making.
Designed in line with Industry 4.0 and smart manufacturing principles, SuPAR digitizes quality processes across automotive, transportation, aerospace and defense, heavy industry, injection molding, and many other application areas, reducing rework costs and shortening inspection times.
SuPAR is a proprietary product developed by CDMVision and CDMTech GmbH.
