Introducing FARO Orbis Premium

FARO? Technologies is pleased to announce FARO? Orbis Premium?, a SLAM mobile scanner with enhanced features engineered to deliver high-quality point cloud data in one comprehensive solution. It includes an integrated 360-degree camera with a remarkable resolution of up to 72 megapixels, for high-quality colorized 3D data and clear panoramic images. Additionally, the scanner is rated IP54, confirming its robustness and ability to perform well in challenging scanning environments.

Experience Stunning High-Resolution Images

The Orbis Premium features an advanced 360-degree integrated camera designed to enhance image quality, create colorized datasets, and improve usability. This innovative tool provides engineers, surveyors, and urban planners with richer visual data to improve project insights and decision-making. It also serves as an excellent solution for quick and detailed captures, with Flash technology?—making it particularly valuable for public safety applications, such as pre-incident and security planning and promptly documenting large crash or crime scenes.

Beautifully Colorized 3D Data

• The integrated camera delivers stunning colorized point clouds. Clearer imagery enhances the colorization process, resulting in vibrant and realistic datasets. When combined with Flash scans, which provide denser and more accurate 3D data, stakeholders receive high-quality data, enabling quicker and more informed decision-making. This combination is particularly advantageous for construction and geospatial workflows, where speed and accuracy are essential for success.

High-Quality Images

• With a resolution of up to 72MP, the quality of panoramic images produced by the mobile scanning device is unmatched. Capture images during a scan through the FARO Stream app, by clicking “Capture static 360 image.” This action will ensure that the panoramic images are automatically integrated into the final processed data from where you captured them. By emphasizing specific job site areas with high-quality data and 360-degree imagery, you provide greater clarity, enabling users to access comprehensive information for informed decision-making.

Greater Usability

• The Orbis Premium goes beyond just delivering enhanced colorized data and improved image quality; it also prioritizes usability. Its design?and integrated camera allow users to connect the mobile scanner to the data logger with a single cable. It simplifies setup and streamlines the scanning process for those seeking a user-friendly scanning experience without compromising accuracy.

IP54 Certification

Not only does the Orbis Premium come equipped with a high-quality camera, but it also boasts an ingress protection (IP) rating of 54. This advanced rating ensures the scanner can withstand tougher environments, making it suitable for a broader range of applications. Whether users are navigating the challenges of an industrial site, working outdoors amidst dust and debris on a construction job, or operating in underground conditions, they can trust that the scanner is up to the challenge. Built to tackle demanding tasks and withstand harsh conditions, the Orbis Premium is the ideal choice for those who need both exceptional performance and robust durability.

Higher Accuracy with Flash Technology

Orbis Premium features integrated Flash technology that enhances precision up to 2mm. This innovation increases point density in key areas and delivers a comprehensive 3D overview of job sites. Flash scans offer 72MP picture quality and are obtained in approximately 15 seconds, allowing users to?benefit from?data clarity and clear images. The blend of mobile data capture with Flash scanning options effectively balances speed, point density, and precision.

From Data Capture to Data Insights

Effortless data capture relies on the quality of the software supporting it, and FARO provides robust processing solutions, both online and offline, to help you access data insights more swiftly. We also offer a mobile app, FARO Stream, which gives users excellent real-time visibility of scans.

FARO Stream App

• FARO Stream is a user-friendly app designed to provide enhanced visibility of the scanning area while allowing users to control scans directly from their smartphones. When connected to the Orbis Premium, the app tracks the scanning trajectory and shows what’s been captured, in real time, minimizing the likelihood of needing to revisit the site. In addition to visualizing scans as they happen, users can quickly start and stop their scans directly from the app and project manage their data. They can also upload the final data from the field to FARO Sphere XG for automatic processing, all while still on site.

FARO Sphere XG

• FARO Sphere XG is an online cloud-based software package for processing and sharing data. Automatically upload Orbis Premium data from FARO Stream to Sphere XG and access information quickly. This streamlined process lets stakeholders review data sooner, providing valuable insights without delay. Once the data is processed in Sphere XG, it can be efficiently converted into multiple formats, making it easy to integrate with widely used third-party software applications.

FARO Connect

• For those who prefer or require an offline workflow, FARO includes desktop-based software, FARO Connect, where users can process data locally. The users can still upload from Connect to Sphere XG should they wish to make it widely available to other stakeholders, or they can keep the exported data offline for use in third-party software.

The Next Step in SLAM Scanning

SLAM-enabled mobile mapping technology has made significant strides in recent years, continually improving each year. The introduction of the Orbis Premium exemplifies this progress, showcasing the latest advancements in hardware that combine accuracy, speed, and data clarity within a single, comprehensive device. The FARO Orbis Premium is the perfect solution for industries that demand quick access to information, clear colorized datasets, and the capability to scan in challenging environments previously deemed unobtainable.
