Scans were registered \u2014 registration is the process of aligning multiple scans in a parent coordinate system using reference positions common between scans \u2014 using target registration with spheres, checker boards and manual targets. Red Laser Scanning also applied survey control.<\/p>\n<p>One of the project\u2019s key challenges included measuring the factory\u2019s confined spaces since most of the equipment was placed close to each other. In order for Red Laser Scanning to capture all the required details, they had to take many extra scans, positioning the scanner in the gaps between the equipment.<\/p>\n<h3>Sophisticated simulations and forensic 3D visualisations<\/h3>\n<p>Thanks to the company\u2019s expertise and FARO technology, including hardware, software and its cloud-based SaaS collaborative platform, the project was successfully brought to completion with the delivery of a point cloud of the area in question.<\/p>\n<p>Data processing and registration took place in FARO SCENE Software and was delivered in Autodesk\u00ae RECAP (.rcp) format. SCENE enables users to create impressive 3D visualisations of real-world objects and environments and export that data in various formats. Red Laser Scanning also benefited from its use of FARO WebShare, a web-based project management tool.<\/p>\n<p>Once again, the varied tools Red Laser Scanning brought to the project proved their worth across a variety of metrics, including data visualisation and communication, the ability to gather detailed information fast, and simulation and verification of that data.<\/p>\n<p>Nick Forrest, the company\u2019s business development manager, elaborated further, highlighting additional advantages to using FARO technology:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Point cloud power:<\/strong> The point cloud is an excellent information carrier and can easily be used as a visualisation aid for meetings or simply to refreshing memories of a location. It also provides the possibility to view and examine a location remotely.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Formidable measuring possibilities:<\/strong> The measuring possibilities allow single point and distance measurements without the concern of interfering with objects. This method can, to some extent, replace the current approach in measuring buildings and floor flatness.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sophisticated software:<\/strong> Software like SCENE can perform advanced simulations and verifications of existing and future layouts, models and installations. Additionally, parts of the point cloud can be colourised, hidden, removed, duplicated or transformed and existing 2D layout drawings or 3D models can be attached and verified relative the point cloud. And the attached objects can be simulated with clash collision or differencing.<\/p>\n<h3>Future success with FARO\u2019s 3D laser scanning tech<\/h3>\n<p>Ultimately, the Red Laser Scanning team said that the Rockwool project was brought to completion significantly faster by employing FARO 3D laser scanning technology, saving the company a considerable amount of money. Rockwool, too, gained a notable advantage and said it plans to rely on Red Laser Scanning for future facility upgrades and enhancements.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
