TERRESTRIAL LASER SCANNING
RIEGL VZ-400i
The RIEGL VZ-400i is a cutting-edge 3D Laser Scanning System which combines a future-oriented, innovative processing architecture and internet connectivity with RIEGL’s latest waveform processing LiDAR technology.
High Performance 3D Laser Scanner
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.
For operating the scanner and for data processing, RIEGL offers the well established software package RiSCAN PRO. Different license levels and plugin module licenses allow an adaption to the user specific requirements.
