Die 3D-Laserscanner von FARO liefern mithilfe modernster Lasertechnologie äußerst detailreiche 3D-Dokumente. In nur wenigen Minuten entstehen 3D-Bilder von komplexen Umgebungen und geometrischen Elementen. Sie können für die Unfallrekonstruktion, die 3D-Modellierung von Anlagen, architektonische Erhaltungsprojekte, digitale Fabriklayouts oder zur Überwachung von Verformungen genutzt werden.

Improved Visualisation – Color Balancing
Color Balancing
During the creation of the project point cloud, there is now the
possibility to apply a color balancing algorithm. Color balancing tries
to smooth the transition between overlapping scans which show
different color tints. This different color tints typically result from
slightly different lighting conditions at the different scan positions.

Improved Visualisation – Super Sampling
Super Sampling
Super Sampling is an option of SCENEs 3D View. When activated,
SCENE is rendering the data for the 3D view in a higher resolution
than your screen (2x, 3x or 4x higher) in the background. Before
brought to display, this data is filtered and the resolution is adjusted
to your screen size. In effect this will produce more crisp 3D view
output which lets you see more details. Stray points and other
artifacts are widely reduced.

Improved Visualisation –
Homogenisation for PointClouds
Homogenization for Point Clouds
During the creation of scan point clouds or project point clouds, the
new homogenization feature eliminates scan points which are closer
than 1,5mm. While this does not result in a visual difference
compared to not homogenized point clouds, this process reduces the
file size by about 20% in average (depending on the specific scan
data).
This reduction in the number of scan points will also improve the
efficiency of exporting scan data from 3D view and importing it into
3rd party software.

Improved Visualisation – Auto Clustering
Auto Clustering
The Auto Clustering feature helps you to register scans which could
not be done automatically by SCENE. Even if a set of scans cannot
be placed together completely by SCENE, in many cases there will be
groups of scans which already fit together.
Once Auto Clustering is activated, SCENE will try to identify those
groups of scans and sort them into separate scan clusters.
Additionally those clusters will be moved away from each other. In
the Correspondence View, those clusters are easily identifiable and
allow you to arrange a smaller number of groups instead of a bigger
number of single scans.

Multi Clipping Boxes
Multi Clipping Boxes
Once you have defined a Clipping Box in SCENE, the new command
“Create Clipping Boxes along an axis” allows you to create copies of
the initial Clipping Box. The dialog box of this command gives you
the option to decide in which direction those copies should be
created as well as how many copies should be made and the
distance between the boxes.
As a result, SCENE will create a folder, named as specified in the
dialog box, which consists of the initial Clipping Box as well as of all
copies. In 3D View, the folder will be shown as a bounding box
around all Clipping Boxes. The whole set of boxes may be modified
as well as the single Clipping Boxes.

Multi Orthophoto
The orthophoto tool allows you know to create orthophotos of a set
of Clipping Boxes in one step. To do so, select a folder of Clipping
Boxes instead of a single box. The new Multi Clipping Box feature for
example is automatically creating such a folder for a set of parallel
Clipping Boxes.
Once you have selected a folder of Clipping Boxes, the orthophoto
tool will use the resolution and scale settings to create one
orthophoto per Clipping Box.

Speed up of Feature Detection
The algorithms for detection of natural features (corner points, planes, rectangles) have
been improved.
Fine Registration improved (now based on the full scans)
Fine Registration in SCENE 5.2 is now using the full scans to optimize the tensions
between the scans.
Fast 3D Selections and Export (up to 50x faster than 5.1!)
The performance of 3D selections and export of point cloud data from 3D View has been
improved remarkably.
Improved handling of surveyed references
SCENE 5.2 is no more creating copies of the global “References” folder in the scan
clusters. All surveyed references are stored in and retrieved from the global “References”
folder.
New measurement unit: US survey feet
SCENE 5.2 is now offering US survey feet as additional unit for the display of dimension
as well as for the export of point cloud data.
