FARO Technologies, a provider of 4D digital reality solutions, announced the release of Hybrid Reality Capture™, powered by Flash Technology, a solution that delivers faster scanning for large-volume projects in architecture, engineering, construction, and public safety applications.
Accessed through FARO’s advanced workflows, Hybrid Reality Capture is the newest scan mode for Focus Premium Laser Scanner users. It combines the accuracy of a static 3D laser scanner with the speed of a panoramic camera. The unique combination of fast scans with colorized 360° images enables users to complete up to two weeks of on-site work in one week. Improving scanning speed by 100% means customers can complete projects faster without increasing costs.
Flash Technology will enable more frequent, faster data capture, requiring only 30 seconds per scan. With proprietary smart upscaling algorithms, the output includes all collected points, with images that look crisper than the same resolution scans with traditional methods.
