Special features of FARO Freestyle3D
Maximum flexibility and productivity
FARO's Freestyle3D provides you 3D color scan data with excellent accuracy. Due to the lightweight and compact design, the easy and intuitive operation and the reliable results Freestyle3D is the best solution for challenges in 3D documentation. Since the device has laser class 1, it is eye-safe and can be used everywhere without any risk.
You can use the handheld 3D scanner to digitally document almost any type of surface and surroundings in a minimum of time. Thanks to the low weight and the slim design, you gain maximum flexibility. You can scan even confined and hard to reach areas in which you cannot position a tripod with terrestrial laser scanner. Afterwards, you can combine the scan data with captures made with FARO Focus3D laser scanners and, thus, ensure a complete 3D documentation of a scan area.

Architecture and construction
Measure complex structures easily in 3D
With Freestyle3D, surveying complex structures in construction is a child's play. You can even scan narrow or hard to reach areas with this compact handheld scanner. You can immediately check the scanned area on the tablet PC to verify the completeness of the scanned surface. The obtained point clouds of the complex installations and surfaces can easily be transferred to a computer via SD card and processed afterwards.
Interior design by means of hand-operated scanners
Fast and precise 3D documentation
Due to the enormous scan volume, Freestyle3D is perfectly suited for detailed surveying of interior spaces. You have never documented rooms as fast, accurate and easy as you do with the Freestyle3D scanner. Even inexperienced users can operate the scanner and gain vest results thanks to the intuitive user interface.
3D scanner for crime scene documentation
Secure all evidence for eternity
The preservation of evidence at crime scenes is a challenge for forensic experts since they have to collect and save information by means of photos and notes. But this approach is very time-consuming.By contrast, 3D scanning a whole crime scene is made within a minimum of time and provides reliable detailed captures that are the perfect basis for investigation and accurate reconstruction of the progression of events.
Digitalization of accident scenes
Captures everything immediately
To capture accident scenes three-dimensionally, police and accident investigators often use the terrestrial laser scanner FARO Focus3D. If you want to capture details and complex structures, FARO Freestyle3D is an ideal enhancement. With Freestyle3D you are very flexible and gain a complete 3D documentation. The scanner is immediately ready for scanning and doesn't need any warm-up time. This way, you save time and minimize delays. Afterwards, you can combine the data with the scan results of a Focus3D scanner.
Mode of operation of FARO Freestyle3D
Capture intuitively in 3D
With a range of 0.5 to 3 meters, you capture objects and their surroundings completely with Freestyle3D. There is no need to position reference marks. Simply capture various objects and structures immediately in color from different angles. During scanning, you can check in real time on the tablet PC which areas already have been captured. This way, no information can be lost during data capturing.
The captured 3D data (point clouds) is saved on a SD card that allows an easy data transfer to a PC for further processing. The point clouds are edited with FARO Scene software. Then, you can export the data for usage in a CAD system, combined the obtained point clouds with other point clouds or share them online with project partners via SCENE WebShare Cloud.

Workflow for 3D documentation
In just 3 steps to success
The workflow with Freestyle3D is as easy as you think:
Step 1: Scan
Capture the desired area by pointing Freestyle3D to the objects to be scanned and capture everything, that is in the scanner's field of view, at the push of a button. You can move the handheld scanner around the objects to actually scan all desired pieces of information.
Step 2: Process
In the powerful software FARO Scene, you can process your scan results (point clouds) and, when needed, merge with other point clouds that have been captured earlier with a FARO Focus3D laser scanner.
Step 3: Collaborate
To share your processed scan results with colleagues or projects partners, you can easily and securely upload the data in WebShare Cloud. You can also assign a password to your project.
