FARO has been busy in the reality capture space lately – with updates to its Swift Mobile Scanner announced at Geo Week, and now, a new software platform, mobile app and FARO Focus Premium scanner for reality capture and collaboration.

In a joint announcement for three new innovations, FARO announced FARO Sphere, a “digital ecosystem” that serves as the backbone for an end-to-end 3D capture workflow, as well as the launch of FARO Stream, a mobile app that allows for real-time data verification, and the FARO Focus Premium Laser Scanner.

Fundamentally, FARO Sphere is a data management platform and cloud-based digital ecosystem and will centralize the collection and management of 3D scanning projects. FARO Sphere provides a single point sign-on that can provide faster access while keeping data synced to the cloud. The ability to synchronize across a platform is aimed at reducing communication issues that arise from accessing outdated or previous versions of data, which can lead to rework and waste. 

In addition to direct project management and on-site data upload, FARO Sphere acts as the hub for all service, training and technical documentation needs. Users will now have easier and more direct access the answers they need, even when on-site, which can be another way to reduce bottlenecks and drive efficiencies.
