2023 – Celebrating Two Dynamic Years at FARO HoloBuilder

Jun 27, 2023 | Article, Construction

And just like that, it’s been two years since we became FARO HoloBuilder! Here’s a recap of what we’ve been up to the last year and what we have in store for you.

It has been two whole years since HoloBuilder became part of the FARO Technologies family, and what a journey it’s proving to be. Sharing a common passion for developing and providing only the best 360° reality capture and 3D point cloud data solutions has enabled us to innovate on our solutions to help you improve speed, accuracy, and efficiency on your projects.  

But enough about us. Building a great team is only possible with your loyal support, pushing us to provide you with cutting-edge and industry-leading tools. Over the last two years, we have released several new features for our construction progress management ecosystem to make your workflow integration and collaboration more seamless than ever. Point Cloud Management, Sphere Viewer, and VideoMode, just to name a few.  

In celebration of FARO HoloBuilder’s second anniversary, we invite you to take a walk down memory lane with us as we cover the memorable events that have taken place since joining forces.  

Innovating Futuristic Reality Capture Tools to Elevate Your Workflow and Efficiency

Innovation comes in many shapes and sizes, and in the case of the ever-expanding construction industry, the ability to remain a notch higher than the competitor can be the defining factor behind your success. That is why we strive to create seamless and integratable workflow methods that help you remain efficient and meet the highest delivery standards.  

With your continuous support, we’ll ensure HoloBuilder remains the best end-to-end digital reality capture solution provider on the market. Here’s a look at some of our new additions to strengthen our toolbox.

FARO Sphere Viewer

With the release of the Sphere Viewer in December last year, the foundation was laid for great things to come. A one-stop visualization tool that unites your 3D Point Cloud Data from FARO Sphere and 360° reality capture data from HoloBuilder into a single integrated platform.

Point Cloud Management

Upload, view, share, measure, and manage all your Point Cloud Data directly within HoloBuilder through the Sphere Viewer. The Point Cloud Management feature intelligently unites 3D point clouds and 360° photos into a single platform, effectively removing data silos while driving accuracy, accessibility, and efficiency.

SOC 2 Type 1 Examination

Confidently store all your data with HoloBuilder, as we provide you with top notch protection and safeguards to govern your data. We are committed to delivering the highest information security standard for our customers in compliance with the SOC 2 Type 1 standard.

Other New Features

A few other additions and upgrades have also been made to HoloBuilder, including:   

  • VideoMode for fast, hands-free site capture 
  • Colored Waypoints for more straightforward project navigation and sorting 
  • Full compatibility and support for the new Insta360 X3 camera 
  • Complete Raken integration for effortless project and supply chain management

Attending Global and Virtual Events with You Keeps Us Inspired

As the most important stakeholders of our growth, it was a humbling and memorable experience meeting all of you in person at events across the US, Germany, Chile, Mexico, and Japan. Listening to your perspectives on how reality capture benefits your roles only motivates us to develop better tools that solve your problems efficiently and sustainably. It was great sharing, talking, and mingling with all of you, whether it was at our own Build ‘n’ Brew events, or industry conferences such as CMAA in San Diego, InterGEO in Germany, World of Concrete and CONEXPO in Las Vegas, and the recent MCAA in Arizona and RevUP in Texas, just to name a few.

Its Only Onward and Upward from Here

As we move ahead, we’re excited to put together innovative, impactful, and collaborative site documentation and management tools for you to perform more efficiently and accurately. We cannot thank you enough for the unwavering support you have given us, and we hope that trust in us continues for more anniversaries, projects, and buildings to come.  

The FARO HoloBuilder team is in it for the long run, #BuildingTogether with you.
