Stream is the FARO field-capture mobile app that connects FARO hardware with FARO Sphere cloud-based services. By uniting hardware with cloud software, Stream makes on-site capture workflows more efficient and brings captured data directly into the FARO ecosystem. Stream is compatible with both the Focus Premium and Orbis mobile scanners with a unified interface. Stream provides live feedback of the captured data, performing real-time SLAM for Orbis and pre-registration for Focus. Stream for Focus Premium also allows the ability to include complementary data like field annotations and photographic images to the project after a scan is complete.

Stream provides the best on-site efficiency for data capture with the Focus Premium and Orbis for scan operations in architecture, engineering, construction, facility management, geospatial, and mining.
