FARO Focus3D S 120 Laser Scanner
The FARO Focus3D S 120 is a compact, high-speed terrestrial laser scanner for detailed 3D measurement and documentation. It captures the surrounding environment as a point cloud of millions of 3D measurement points in just minutes, and a built-in color camera adds true color to the data. It suits building documentation, plant and factory surveys, façade and structural deformation, accident and crime scene work, and heritage recording.
Key Features
- Phase-based laser scanning: captures objects from 0.6 m to 120 m
- High measurement speed: up to 976,000 measurement points per second
- Wide field of view: 360° horizontal and about 305° vertical
- Integrated color camera: colorizes the point cloud, and allows color-textured output
- Touchscreen control: operate every scanner function and parameter on the device itself
- Flexible control options: run it from a laptop over WLAN or a cable connection, as well as from the touch screen
- Compact and lightweight: about 5 kg, measuring roughly 24 × 20 × 10 cm, making it easy to carry to difficult sites
- Efficient workflow: scans and images are saved to an SD card and transferred easily to a PC
- Flexible power: runs from an internal battery or an external power supply
- SCENE software compatibility: FARO’s software for viewing, registering, and exporting the scan data into 3D products
Typical Applications
- Building construction documentation and as-built surveys
- Excavation volumes and structural deformation monitoring
- Industrial plants, factories, and process facilities
- Crime scene and accident reconstruction
- Heritage and architectural recording
- Product and large-object geometry
Why Choose It
The FARO Focus3D S 120 gives you fast, detailed 3D capture in a scanner small enough for one person to carry and operate. The touchscreen and integrated camera keep fieldwork simple, so you can document complex environments quickly and take the data straight into modeling and CAD workflows.
