FARO Technologies Inc., a provider of 3D scanning and data processing technology, has released new smart 3D imager arrays. The goal, according to the company, is to provide automated industrial manufacturing metrology processes.

The FARO Cobalt 3D Imager has on-board dedicated processors, smart sensors and the ability to scan simultaneously with multiple arrays. It is suited for high-resolution applications, automatic exposure and has a high dynamic range.

"The FARO Cobalt 3D Imager delivers reliable and accurate 3D scan data within an automated workflow.  With no restrictions on the number of sensors in an array, the sky is the limit for improving inspection cycle time, making it an exciting new product that enhances the FARO portfolio for in-process or near-process inspection," said Simon Raab, FARO’s president and CEO. "The price and capabilities of Cobalt make it a cost-effective, versatile, and convenient tool that delivers a rapid return on investment for customers in a variety of metrology and product design applications."
