Long Range Laser Scanner

The VUX-1LR Long Range is a very lightweight, compact and rugged laser scanner that was especially designed for airborne surveying missions from helicopter, gyrocopter, and other small aircraft. The sensor provides a maximum measurement range of 1,350 m, an effective measurement rate of up to 750,000 measurementssec., and an operating flight altitude of up to 1,740 ft AGL.
In conjunction with an appropriate IMUGNSS unit with antenna, a control unit, and a digital camera, the sensor is integrated into the VP-1 Helipod. This user-friendly turnkey solution can be easily mounted on standard hard points and typical camera mounts of manned helicopters for applications like corridor mapping, power line, rail track and pipeline inspection.
