VZ-400i
3D Laser Scanning System with Real-Time Registration & Processing
The RIEGL VZ-400i is a cutting-edge 3D Laser Scanning System offering high-speed data acquisition with up to 500,000 measurements/sec., range up to 800 m, and 5 mm accuracy. The system enables simultaneous acquisition of scan data and image data as well as simultaneous geo-referencing in real-time.
Description
The RIEGL VZ-400i is a cutting-edge 3D Laser Scanning System which combines a future-oriented, innovative new processing architecture and internet connectivity with RIEGL’s latest waveform processing LiDAR technology.
This real-time data flow is enabled through dual processing platforms: a dedicated processing system for simultaneous acquisition of scan data and image data, waveform processing and system operations, and a second processing platform which enables automatic on-board registration, geo-referencing, and analysis to be executed in parallel. The VZ-400i provides an integrated 3G/4G LTE modem, Wi-Fi, and Ethernet communications hardware.
With its integrated orientation sensor (MEMS IMU, compass, and barometer), the VZ-400i’s up to 1200 kHz pulse repetition rate can be fully utilized in many environments and orientations. The system provides a high range of flexibility by supporting numerous external peripherals and accessories via its integrated USB ports and stable mounting points.
