FARO Technologies, Inc., the world market leader in portable computer-aided measurement arm and laser tracker sales, today announced that it has developed a Super Mobile Laser Scanner Kit.

“Nearly every application requires a laser scanner to be repositioned in order to get a comprehensive view,” FARO President and CEO Jay Freeland said. “The new Super Mobile Kit makes scanning faster and more productive by enabling our customers to take it anywhere – whether they’re hiking through forests or rough terrain like in civil engineering, tunnels and mines, forensic scenes or archaeological excavations.”

The FARO Laser Scanner LS is a portable, computerized measurement device that scans, digitally recreates, and records all of an object or area’s dimensions, creating what looks like a “photograph” on the computer screen, but in 3D. The captured data can be used to create a digital model for inspection, reverse-engineering, CAD-to-part comparison, factory planning, or investigations for industries ranging from power, process and piping to forensics, surveying and historical preservation.

“With the Super Mobile Kit, FARO offers its customers a major advancement in ease of use, mobility and professional handling,” Dr. Bernd-Dietmar Becker, FARO’s Director for Marketing & Product Management for Laser Scanning, said. 

“The Wi-Fi/WLAN minimizes cables, which makes the FARO LS simpler to use, faster to set up, safer on the plant floor, and maintains the integrity of crimes scenes and archaeological sites.”
