MiniRANGER-LITE

MiniRANGER-LITE

Most Versatile, More Precise, More Dense Point Cloud Data

This system features an impressive recommended AGL of up to 75 meters, filling a major AGL gap in the lightweight UAV LiDAR market

Description

The MiniRANGER-LITE is a system that features an impressive recommended AGL of up to 75 meters, fi lling a major AGL gap in the ultra-lightweight UAV LiDAR market. With the photogrammetry
package, operators of mid-size multirotors, like the DJI M600 Pro, can now simultaneously acquire survey-grade LiDAR data and high resolution 24 MP (up to 61 MP if required) RTK photogrammetry at up to 100 m operating fl ight altitude.

Features:

  • Includes the new weight optimized Air NavBox for increased range & flexibility

  • Flexible mounting to drones such as DJI M600 and M300 with our custom vibration isolator mounts

  • High resolution 61 MP camera option available

Quick Specs:

  • Absolute Accuracy = 2-3.5 cm RMSEz @ 75 m 

  • Intraswath Precision =  3 cm RMSDz @ 75 m

  • Weight = 2.2 kg / 4.9 lbs.

  • Dimensions = 240 x 130 x 180 mm

  • Pulse Rate = 100 k shots/s, up to 5 returns

  • Laser Range = 250 m @ 60% Reflectivity
