The FocusS 350 offers extra long range – 350m, FocusS 150 is a mid-range device offering precise scanning up to 150m. With their sealed design, both models are certified via the industry standard Ingress Protection (IP) Rating, and classified in Class 54 for environmental protection. The devices are built to safeguard against intrusions such as dirt, dust, fog and rain as well as other outdoor elements which typically occur in challenging scanning conditions. An addition the two laser scanners offer a future-proof interface to connect additional accessories to the scanner and provide a specific on-site compensation routine.

For the short-range applications, the new FocusM 70 Laser Scanner captures data up to 70 meter therefore ideal for indoor measurements and small area applications.

The new FARO FocusM 70 sets a new standard in price/performance for construction BIM/CIM and public safety-forensics applications and is the first professional grade scanner to be offered at an affordable price that does not compromise on the industrial grade performance included in the award-winning FARO Focus Laser Scanner portfolio. Key features include an Ingress Protection (IP) Rating of 54 for use in high particulate and wet weather conditions, HDR imaging, acquisition speed of almost 500,000 points per second and extended temperature range. Additionally, users have unrestricted freedom of choice to leverage the software tools most beneficial to their own workflow as data captured by the FARO FocusM 70 can be used with various software packages including FARO SCENE or 3rd party software such as Autodesk ReCap.

All scanner types offer the possibility to perform scanning even in bright sunlight. Remote scanning as well as almost limitless scan data sharing via SCENE Webshare Cloud make the laser scanning solution truly mobile.

WHAT ARE THE FUNCTIONS OF HDR?

The HDR laser scanner models record HDR imagery. HDR means high dynamic range and is a technique to capture images with multiple exposure rates and merging them into a single HDR image layer. This HDR image provides additional details in dark or bright areas, which would have been lost in a standard image. These HDR images will be mapped onto the point cloud data generated by the laser scanner.

Main benefits:

• Reliable life-like visualization, even under extreme lighting conditions and large distance
• Safe and fast as-built data capturing with superior colour detail
• Reduced complexity by integrated scanning and imaging workflow for all kinds of scanning tasks
