FARO® Leads in Virtual Reality for Construction, Design and ForensicsLAKE MARY, Fla., Nov. 9, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- FARO® (NASDAQ: FARO), the world's most trusted source for product design, construction BIM/CIM, and public safety forensics announces the release of Virtual Reality (VR)-ready FARO® SCENE 7.1 software (www.faro.com/scene). FARO SCENE 7.1 enables an immersive VR experience with integration of detailed photographic textures, i.e., surface details of an object and rendering of 3D scan data so quickly that it appears to be generated in real time. A free 30 day trial for SCENE 7.1 is available for download at https://www.faro.com/resource/scene7/. While SCENE 7.1 is optimized for the FARO laser scanning product portfolio, e.g. FocusS or Freestyle, it is also device agnostic, so it can seamlessly accept and manage 3D scan data from other, non-FARO laser scanner products.
