Laser Scanner Faro Focus
General information
The Faro Focus Laser Scanner instrument available in MOLAB can be used for in situ investigations as it is extremely handy (230 x 183 x 103 mm and weighs 4.4 kg), fast, and completely non-invasive.
It uses phase difference laser technology (for which the distance is calculated by comparing the phase difference between the transmitted wave and the received one, thus obtaining information on the coordinates of space) with a high acquisition speed (2,000,000 points/sec) and a high degree of precision.
Laser scanner technology is an extremely precise surface methodology that allows the creation of a three-dimensional model.
The measuring range extends to a 350-metre radius on surfaces with a reflectance coefficient of 90%. An integrated GPS receiver allows for the correlation of individual scans during post-processing.
3D scanning data is managed in specific software or imported into other applications specifically made by others. Through the treatment of the point cloud, it is possible to calculate distances, areas, and volumes, extract sections and profiles, and make 2D drawings such as plans and elevations.
