"With FARO Sphere as its backbone, our new end-to-end 3D capture
platform provides customers with industry-leading ease-of-use,
accuracy and speed," said Michael
Burger, FARO President and CEO. "Real-time data capture
validation and remote collaboration will transform how customers
generate, access and utilize 3D data models. For our shareholders,
Sphere is expected to generate meaningful high margin Software as a
Service (SaaS) recurring revenue over time as customers
increasingly realize the benefits of our cloud-based solution."
The next generation Focus Premium is the fastest, most accurate
and best data-sharing-enabled scanner on the market today,
featuring entirely new components with a proven design. The new
Stream app, which is available for Android and iOS devices, used
with the Focus Premium enables on-site scan data validation
(preregistration) and can be immediately synched to Sphere for
registration and collaboration.
Sphere centralizes the collection and management of all 3D data
projects and can be accessed by global stakeholders through the
secure, single point sign-on. Sphere also provides a one-stop user
experience across FARO's leading software applications and customer
support tools, including HoloBuilder, a global construction
progress management solution that delivers hardware agnostic image
capture, registration, and viewing targeted to the fast-growing
Digital Twin space. Additional workflows that enable customers to
realize even greater value will be offered in future Sphere
updates
"Beta customers have found the complete platform solution to
dramatically enhance data delivery and analysis, improving their
time to decision by up to 50%," continued Burger. "We're excited by
the initial feedback, which supports our approach of deeply
understanding customer needs to transform how they work in a
3D-enabled virtual world."
"We are very excited to see the advances FARO has made," said
Travis Voss, Leader of Innovative
Technologies at Helm Mechanical, a US construction company. "The
combination of the new Focus Scanner, Stream, and Sphere and how
that all flows together is going to cut our scanning and processing
time down by 60% easily. This time savings will allow us to examine
scanning projects more frequently, scanning projects we normally
wouldn't have because of time constraints, and expanding our
offerings to customers.
