Discovering the power of scanning

Author:莫妮卡·米勒·罗杰斯（Monica Miller Rodgers）

If you know laser scanning, then you also know the headache of registering and stitching together scans – meticulously spending hours to make sure everything fits just right to obtain the entire picture of a site. The latest 3D laser scanner by Hexagon’s Geosystems division uses edge computing to make these pains a worry of the past.

这newLeica RTC360是一种光（只有6公斤）和小型激光扫描仪，它们会自动记录从车站到车站到预注册扫描的扫描。这Reportercaught up with Juergen Mayer, terrestrial laser scanning business director, to find out the latest on the latest.

RTC360是GeoSystems 3D激光扫描线中最新的。您能给我们一个新的新闻吗？

Leica RTC360 is the optimal solution for maximum productivity on highly challenging and complex site conditions where the environment, the accuracy, the reliability and the speed of operation are of the utmost importance. The RTC360 is tuned for short to medium scan ranges and High-Dynamic Range (HDR) applications, which require the highest possible level of accuracy. It is equally suited for demanding indoor and outdoor applications. We gave particular care to workflow automation, integration of quality checks and real-time completeness checks. Combined with Leica Cyclone REGISTER 360 and Leica Cyclone FIELD 360 laser scanning software, high quality laser scan data is provided quicker than ever before.

最近，我们听说了很多有关Edge Computing的信息。您能解释什么是边缘计算，RTC360如何使用它？

RTC360解决方案通过实时扫描流传输，并自动处理扫描数据以提供实时质量控制和现场数据注册来使用边缘计算。

与云计算不同，边缘计算不会集中地保持关键数据。相反，此新过程允许将数据流传输到移动设备，从而更快地访问并更有效地分析数据。对于我们的用户来说，这意味着他们可以预先注册现场扫描，并提供现场质量保证，以节省大量时间。

What ROI are customers going to get out of this latest laser scanning innovation?

这RTC360 was designed with simple and highly automated workflows in mind. This allows immediate productivity even for scanning novices. Innovative technology allows integrated near-real-time quality assurance and completeness checks of your field work. The novelty of automatic pre-registration in the field reduces the complexity and the time of your office work. High quality point clouds become immediately available for your design work. These time savings, workflow simplifications and productivity gains automatically translate into increased profits and accelerated paybacks. In addition, the solution puts you in a position to expand your business activities pursuing new opportunities with new innovative deliverables. With the faster scanning and high portability of the RTC360, time on site is also reduced and safety is increased. Get in and get out faster with the increased accuracy you receive, affording you the opportunity to plan your work more efficiently off site so your time per scan is reduced by a factor of four.

How does the RTC360 differ from other Leica ScanStations and the Leica BLK360?

这Leica ScanStation P40 is the right solution where survey grade workflows matter and highly reliable accurate results are required (traversing, target measurements, dual-axis compensation). It is also the right scanner for harshest operating conditions across the globe, in particular at extreme temperature ranges.

Due to its superior measurement range, the Leica ScanStation P50 will also be the instrument of choice when covering larger areas.

徕卡BLK360是ideal for relatively small-scale reality capture applications where images are as important as accurate 3D data. The BLK360, though suitable for outdoor operation, is optimised for indoor applications with short ranges and that require maximum portability in highly congested areas. Due to its simplicity, it easily can be adopted by users who are absolutely not familiar with scanning so far.

RTC360是从基本到复杂的各种项目的可扩展解决方案。它满足了扫描仪和BLK360之间的需求，并提供了自己的建筑，工厂和公共安全的解决方案。
