Understanding resolution and quality on the FARO Focus
In this video, Lukas will guide you through the essential scan parameters—resolution and quality—used by the FARO Focus scanner when recording scan data. These settings are crucial for meeting project requirements, managing time constraints, and ensuring successful scan registration.
Resolution determines the density of scan points: a higher setting results in sharper images and finer detail, but it also increases the number of points captured and reduces the distance between them. You'll learn how to select an appropriate resolution based on the level of detail needed and the distances involved. Resolution is represented as a fraction, ranging from 1/1 to 1/32.
Quality, on the other hand, influences the overall fidelity of the scan and the scanning time at a constant resolution. A higher quality setting captures points more densely around objects, but it also slows down the measurement rate. Lukas will explain how this setting employs noise reduction algorithms to differentiate between accurate details and extraneous data. The quality setting is indicated by a number followed by an X, with options varying depending on the chosen resolution.
