3-D Scanning Services
Using a FARO 3D scanner & FARO Scene software, we capture point cloud data & 360 degree color images to produce and accurate 3D representation of the scanned space. The Scene 2go portable viewer allows the scan project to be viewed in great detail without the need of an internet connection. A 3D scan is an invaluable resource for documenting existing systems & planning for future installations.


3-D Rendering
Photo realistic images & video of concept designs are created to include specific docks or locations. Enabling visualization of an idea before the project reaches the building stage, helps to create a better understanding of the project to all involved. 3-D renderings are invaluable tools to use while marketing, brainstorming, troubleshooting & project presentations.
