FARO® SCENE
So, you’ve taken 3D laser scans of the building you want to document, or you’ve captured the on-site data you need in order to preserve a crime or crash scene. Now what? FARO SCENE Software is where data processing and scan registration happens. With 3D SCENE Software, users can create stunning 3D visualizations of real-world objects and environments and export that data in various formats. SCENE also features an impressive virtual reality (VR) view, allowing users to experience and evaluate captured data in the VR environment.
SCENE Features
Seamless Connectivity
Use the scanning data across the FARO software ecosystem. Convert scan data into usable CAD/BIM workflows with FARO As-BuiltTM Software. Ensure construction quality control with BuildIT Construction Software. And reconstruct, analyze and diagram forensic scenes with FARO Zone 3D Software.
Immersive Views
Explore scan data in 2D, 3D and VR, creating an immersive experience when viewing project point clouds of unlimited size in full detail.
Superior Navigation
Navigate in 3D with predefined or customized viewpoints, overview map and user feedback to optimize the data render quality and performance.
Easy Data Registration
Use professional and automatic workflows for target-based and targetless (Cloud2Cloud) scan registration.
Efficient Data Processing
Use various tools for scan data filtering to improve cleanliness and color balancing.
Automatic Search
Search for artificial spheres, checkerboards, coded markers or natural references (corner points and planes, etc.).
Intuitive Data Organization
Handle large projects efficiently with a hierarchical data structure and project history management.
Automatic Scan Coloring
Color scans from high-resolution color photographs or the Laser-HDRTM color option.
WebShare Integration
Upload projects with the WebShare service.
SCENE 2go App
Access the app from a USB flash drive for sharing projects with clients for data exploration.
SCENE Software Performance
The World’s Leading Scene Documentation Software
SCENE is designed to process scans captured with FARO Focus Laser Scanners, the Focus Swift Indoor Mobile Scanner, the Freestyle 2 Handheld Scanner and third-party laser scanners. User-guided workflows and extended language support ensure the fastest possible learning curve. Automatic functions and optimized usage of your PC hardware provide the fastest and most productive workflows on the market, making surveying three times more efficient than traditional methods.
Business Value of SCENE Software
Get the Most Out of Your FARO Scanners
This powerful software pairs with FARO Focus Laser Scanners, the Focus Swift Indoor Mobile Scanner and the Freestyle 2 Handheld Scanner to enable data visualization, management, cleaning and registration.
Only Visit a Site Once
SCENE captures all the data you need on the first visit, so you can explore it digitally with project stakeholders in panoramic views, 3D fly-throughs and virtual-reality tours.
Share and Collaborate
WebShare, a web-based service for easy and secure sharing of scan project data, lets you collaborate with others anytime, anywhere.
Save Time
Automatic data processing, filter and registration functions provide a high-quality digital representation of reality at a glance.
Work with Confidence
Real-time on-site registration lets you leave the scanning site knowing you’ve captured all the data you need for later analysis.
Control Data Quality
Versatile registration and validation tools deliver data within specified tolerances.
Public Safety Analytics Applications
Digital Capture of Forensic Scenes
Using a laser scanner to digitally capture a crash, crime or fire scene is the best way to accurately preserve the evidence, but it generates a large amount of data. SCENE software is the best tool to process, register and manage that scan data, resulting in a visually impressive point cloud of the scene for crime scene investigation, fire and arson investigation, crash reconstruction and more.
Improved Safety Planning and Failure Investigation
Gain a more nuanced understanding of the scene and identify potential pre-incident risks that may save lives and prevent injuries in the future. The virtual 3D on-site viewing capabilities make SCENE a valuable tool for safety planning and failure investigation. See all forensic analysis and pre-incident planning applications >
Architecture, Engineering and Construction Applications
Fast, Accurate As-built Capture and Modeling
Scan-to-BIM has never been easier, as SCENE delivers real-world information right into the building information model. And by visualizing the precise geometries of existing properties as the basis for conversions or extensions, SCENE enables out-of-the-box thinking for different concepts of building use. Building is faster and more accurate with SCENE on your side. See all as-built capture and modeling applications >
