FARO Focus3D Laser Scanner Includes Multi-Sensor Hardware Feature

By DE Editors

FARO Technologies’ Focus3D laser scanner now includes the new Multi-Sensor hardware feature, which incorporates a compass and height sensor to complement the devices existing dual axis compensator. The new sensors define height and orientation against a set point for each scan, improving the automatic registration process and reducing post-processing work.

Users can now perform and download scans remotely with the new WLAN remote control included in each Focus3D. The device may also be equipped with one of three application-specific adaptors that allow the scanner to be mounted to any fixed post or utilized in mobile or super-fast tunnel scanning applications.

SCENE WebShare 4.9, FAROs Internet sharing browser, provides measurement tools and added information via Documentation Objects. Scans shared using WebShare can be directly viewed on the browser or analyzed with a variety of mapping functions.
