Topcon Europe Positioning is announcing a new laser scanner, the GLS-1500, that speeds up point cloud collection - 30,000 points per second - in an ‘all-in-one' design to reduce the amount of equipment needed in the field. 30,000 precise points per second, that is 10 times faster data collection than other models.
The GLS-1500 features include:
- Precise Scan Technology for industry-leading clean point cloud data;
- Lens array optics technology to maintain distance accuracy from 1-150 meters;
- Maximum range of 330m
- On Board scan control software stores scan data and images to a standard SD card for easy download
- Eye-safe and invisible Class 1 Laser.
The Class 1 Laser classification means that users can scan near airports, busy traffic areas, and populated areas with no effect to the people or the environment. The use of a Class 1 invisible laser offers the benefit of low power consumption. With lower power consumption, the GLS-1500 can operate at longer times with fewer battery changes and that saves time on the job.
