Complete with 3D stereoscopic visualization, improvements to
registration processes and new networking features, SCENE 5.0
delivers the most complete software solution for laser scanning
applications LAKE MARY, Fla., March 19, 2012 /CNW/ - FARO
Technologies, Inc. , the world's most trusted source for 3D
measurement technology today announced the release of SCENE 5.0,
the latest in the company's line of point cloud capture processing
software for the Focus3D. For the first time, SCENE users can view
their scans in true stereoscopic 3D for unprecedented levels of
realism. Automatic fine registration eliminates the need for
artificial targets in many cases when piecing together multiple
scans, and the new Project Database enables enhanced levels of
networking between users. (Logo:

contains automatic fine registration, a new cloud-to-cloud
enhancement that reduces or removes the need for the placement of
artificial targets in many scanning applications, and significantly
reduces post-processing time. Rather than utilizing spheres or
checkerboards, the software identifies prominent objects such as
corners, edges and other flat structures within the scan and uses
them as reference points. These features help to seamlessly meld
together multiple scans to form a single, complete point cloud.
This new addition, unique to SCENE 5.0, further expedites the
merging of scans between remote users. The Project Database is
FARO's latest way to facilitate scanning project collaboration.
This new addition seamlessly stores project information and a
step-by-step history of each scanning project. Users may now return
to any step in a scanning database, quickly and easily, no matter
where they may be in their process. They may also select which
details to display on a given project, allowing users to choose
which level of detail to display and reducing extraneous data
points. SCENE 5.0 also supports the new ASTM E57 industry standard,
a manufacturer-independent, binary data exchange format for 3D
data. Through this, users may import and export scanning data
regardless of the specific product used to capture it. New for
SCENE 5.0, stereoscopic visualization allows users to view their
scans on 3D-enabled monitors. The result is an added level of
detail and a heightened sense of realism found in major motion
pictures. For users in the real estate marketing, construction,
renovation and other markets, this 3D viewing feature literally
adds new dimensions to their scanning work. "SCENE 5.0 combines
ease-of-use, networking and an enhanced 3D experience to deliver a
complete scan processing solution," said Oliver Burkler, Senior
Technical Product Manager for the Focus3D. About FARO FARO is the
