FARO Prizm Laser Line

1238888

The FARO Prizm Laser Line(LLP) is a non-contact probe that collects digitized points using a line of projected laser light and a camera. The laser light is projected onto your part as a line, the camera takes a picture of the shape and position of the line, and several points are then sent to the computer. This is done many times in a second to quickly measure curved surfaces, or surfaces that can not be measured using a standard ball probe.

There are two modes when using the FARO Prizm Laser Line Probe:

• Scan points with color values

• Scan points only

 

Computer Requirements

The FARO will generate thousands of points in a short amount of scanning time. For best results, your computer must have a powerful Central Processing Unit (CPU) and a large amount of Random Access Memory (RAM). FARO recommends the following:
