The payload lidar not only for UAS
«We imagined a solution to adopt the laser scanner technology in the emerging UAV market, with a device that could also be used in any other vehicle. We made the choice to simplify the user experience, without sacrificing the system performance.
Every detail, from the component selection to the graphical user interface, has been inspired by this philosophy».
FLYING
Scanfly can be easily installed on most of the UAS available on the market due to its compact shape and light weight. Thanks to the adjustable tilt angle, Scanfly can be used to survey flat terrains, almost vertical surfaces as any other environment.
The dual return allows to easily distinguish the foliage from the ground. The double GNSS antenna allows a static initialization, with no need to perform complicated maneuvers in order to achieve the best performances of the sensors. Multispectral or hyper spectral cameras can complete
the data collected in agro-forestry or precision farming application.
BACKPACK
There are no limits to the environments to survey while wearing Scanfly. Indoors or underground, the SLAM plugin compensates the GNSS outage to obtain a complete and accurate mapping.
The data can be instantly acquired with the panoramic 360° camera and the images can be displayed at any time.
The wearable system is suitable to survey harsh environmental conditions.
ON BOARD
The revolutionary 98mpixel panoramic 360° camera (optional) adds wider view and greater resolution: it is the ideal solution for those who have to colorize the point cloud and automatically extract features with 3DT Smart Processing software.
