Provide services to building construction with 3D laser scanning solutions

Leverage BIM to improve the planning, construction and renovation of buildings

Using intelligent 3D models that are accurate and accessible, BIM has improved the way professionals in the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industries collaborate, reducing re-work and helping to eliminate wasteful processes.

3D laser scanning solutions allows surveyors to provide as-built surveys, which prevent expensive rework by identifying any mistakes early in the design to construction phase. In addition, surveyors can play a pivotal role by using scanning technologies to improve the plan, design, construction, management and renovation processes for buildings.

RTC360

Fast and agile

Move quickly in and around buildings to document prior to renovation or to record an as-built digital twin.

Supported by a Visual Inertial System (VIS) the RTC360 scanner tracks its movement without the need to use targets to stitch adjacent scans together.

Key specifications:

3D accuracy: 6.4mm at 50m and 12.5mm at 100m
Scan speed: 2 mio pts/sec
Temp range: -5°C to +40°C
Range: Medium (40-130m)
Field registration: VIS based
