Why the FARO Focus Premium?

The FARO Focus Premium is a terrestrial laser scanner purpose-built for buildings and sites. It captures up to 976,000 points per second across ranges up to 350 meters — and integrates a built-in camera to produce fully colorized point clouds that are as visually informative as they are dimensionally accurate. The result is a rich, navigable 3D record of any space that feeds directly into CAD, BIM, and engineering workflows without manual re-drawing.
