LAKE
MARY, Fla., Oct. 10,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- FARO® Technologies
(Nasdaq: FARO), a pioneer in the field of 3D measurement,
imaging, and realization technology is proud to announce the
release of the FARO® Orbis™ Mobile Scanner, a
groundbreaking advancement set to redefine 3D reality capture.
Orbis is the first to market hybrid scanner
that can be used for both mobile and stationary data capture in one
device.
Orbis is the first to market hybrid SLAM scanner that can be
used for both mobile and stationary data capture in one device.
Offering local or cloud-based data processing and collaboration,
Orbis is the latest evolution in FARO's industry-leading
Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM)-enabled LiDAR
technology.
Built on FARO's legacy in tripod-based scanning and proprietary
Flash technology, Orbis operators can seamlessly switch between
walking and stationary scanning while continuously acquiring 360°
images, ten times faster than using a traditional static laser
scanner.
Users across geospatial, architecture, engineering,
construction, operations & maintenance, public safety and
mining will now have the ability to capture highly accurate,
detailed scans from a simple to use mobile device. With
significant new functionality, FARO Sphere® XG, the
latest version of Sphere, represents the evolution in cloud
capabilities. Users can integrate data from static scanning, mobile
scanning, 360° capture and iPhone LiDAR data all within a
single, digital reality workflow platform. Project stakeholders can
upload, view, measure and analyze 3D point clouds, 360° images and
BIM (building information modeling) data for centralized
cloud-based data storage and collaboration.
"Orbis demonstrates our commitment to innovation and expanding
our served markets," says Peter Lau,
President & Chief Executive Office of FARO. "It reflects the
fusion of FARO's technologies with the capabilities brought by our
recent acquisitions, GeoSLAM and HoloBuilder. It offers all the
unmatched functionality of a mobile scanner, the precision of a
tripod-based laser scanner and sets a new standard for 3D reality
capture technology and workflow management that will transform the
way people work across a range of industries. Orbis is the
convergence of efficiency, data quality and simplicity and we are
thrilled to bring this to the market."
Orbis is being introduced today at INTERGEO in Berlin, Germany, and is immediately available
for demonstration and purchase.
