FARO has introduced the Orbis Premium, a SLAM mobile scanner designed with advanced features to provide fast, precise and high-quality point cloud data in a single integrated solution. The device features a 360-degree camera capable of capturing images at up to 72MP, enabling detailed colourized 3D data and clear panoramic visuals. With an IP54 rating, the scanner is built to withstand demanding scanning conditions.
Designed for engineers, surveyors and urban planners, the Orbis Premium provides valuable insights to support informed decision-making. Equipped with Flash technology, which delivers precision up to 2mm and increases point density in critical areas, it enables fast, detailed captures, making it versatile for a wide range of mapping applications.
Accelerating workflows with precision
The Orbis Premium has been developed with the needs of land surveying and geospatial professionals in mind. They can depend on high-quality data capture, precision, and a user-friendly design to simplify the scanning process. The integrated camera produces vibrant colourized point clouds that, when combined with Flash scans, result in denser and more accurate 3D data.
A single-cable connection to the data logger ensures easy setup, and scans can be completed in approximately 15 seconds, combining speed with the level of detail required for complex geospatial tasks. The FARO Stream app offers real-time visibility of the scanned high-resolution 72MP panoramic images, streamlining data management in the field.
The images are then seamlessly integrated into the final dataset, providing surveyors and planners with detailed and actionable insights. This combination enables faster and more informed decision-making, making the SLAM mobile scanner particularly valuable for workflows in which speed and precision are essential.
Built to endure challenging environments
Moreover, the new FARO scanner’s IP54 rating ensures robust durability and reliable performance in a variety of field conditions, from dusty construction sites to industrial and underground locations. This rugged design enhances its versatility, allowing professionals to operate confidently in demanding situations. Beyond traditional land surveying or geospatial tasks, it is also particularly effective in public safety scenarios such as pre-incident planning, security assessments and precisely documenting crash or crime scenes.
SLAM-enabled mobile mapping technology has seen steady advancements in recent years. The Orbis Premium reflects the latest progress in combining accuracy, speed and clarity in one device. It offers a practical solution for a multitude of industries needing fast access to clear, colourized geospatial datasets and the ability to operate effectively in environments that were previously difficult to scan.
