Chapter 8: Use a Scan Project in SCENE
SCENE is the FARO software that you can use to work with your scans. In SCENE, you can measure
distances and areas, add annotations, view the project with Virtual Reality equipment, etc. You can also
export the data to SCENE WebShare Cloud, and to many other file formats. You can create meshes
which can be used to print 3D models of parts of your scan. Use the instructions below to import your
projects into SCENE.
NOTE:
SCENE is a complex and flexible application that provides you with many ways to manipulate
your scan data. This document explains how to transfer your scan project to SCENE, but does
not provide more information about how to use the program. Make sure to read the SCENE
documentation carefully. Videos and Training materials are also available at the FARO
