    Selecting The Most Appropiate 3D Scanning Software for FARO

    The 21st century has a lot to thank, for the invention of 3D scanning technology especially those powered by the powerful 3D scanning software for FARO.

    This technology has proven to be very helpful for companies that require 3D digital data from various objects. The scanner works by passing a beam of light or laser over the object. The position of the laser is then recorded by a camera located inside the scanner.

    The 3D data can be seen on the screen once the captured image is transferred to the computer. This efficient transfer of the three-dimensional image to the screen is made possible by the 3D scanning software for FARO.

    One of the software that has been specifically designed and developed for FARO's laser scanner is called Scene. It makes use of scan registration and positioning, as well as the laser's automatic object recognition capability, to efficiently process and manage scanned data.

    What makes Scene a stand-out between the other software is its ability to produce high-quality data even when using the colourise scan feature. The software is also user-friendly and does not require a lot of technical know-how to use. Once the scan data has been prepared, evaluation and processing can continue.

    The Scan 3D scanning software for FARO is also very accessible because with a push of a button, it can now be published on a web server. Using a regular internet browser, users are now able to easily get access the laser scans which now come with the Scene WebShare feature.

    For those into reverse engineering, cultural heritage preservation and forensic investigation, the new laser scanner Photon from FARO is a must-have. Measuring up to 976,000 points per second, this FARO scanner boasts of up to 2mm at 25m of distance and accuracy.

    Companies that need to produce a 3D image of large scale environments particularly when it comes to the preservation of archaeological sites for cultural heritage or in architectural reconstruction will do well with this FARO laser scanner.

    Digital scanners are sorted into contact and non-contact, and the latter further classified as passive and active scanners. An example of a contact 3D scanner is a coordinate measuring machine or CMM, which is used in manufacturing because of its ability to get precise scanning. Nevertheless, contact scanning does not work for some objects that may be modified when touched, such as historical artifacts.

    More users rather the non-contact active scanners which make use of light or radiation to probe the object being scanned. The option of which scanners to use actually depends on the object being scanned.

    FARO recently released the new FARO laser scanner Focus3D which makes use of the 3D scanning software for FARO. This is a revolutionary and light 3D scanner that is extremely useful for the documentation of large environments.

    When 3D scanning is needed for crime scenes, factories, structural deformations, building construction and accident sites, there is in fact no doubt that this new mobile and compact 3D laser scanner from FARO is the ultimate choice.
