The Think 3D Stormbee multicopter integrated with Trimble’s AP15 provides efficiency, accuracy and performance for lidar surveys from unmanned vehicles. Historically, lidar-based aerial surveys were ...

Researchers in South Korea have developed an ultra-small, ultra-thin LiDAR device that splits a single laser beam into 10,000 points covering an unprecedented 180-degree field of view. It's capable of ...

Reconstructing a car crash is painstaking work for police officers. It can take hours to compile data, such as the distance between a skid mark and the spot where a wrecked car stopped. The hours it ...

Mapping the inside of cramped, difficult-to-reach areas can be helpful to people such as plant operators, but drones flown in such places could easily crash. The LiDAR- and cage-equipped Elios 3 ...

A small German tech company sent a briefcase-sized box to a college student with the instructions to mount it on top of his car and drive around San Francisco’s Financial District many times. The goal ...

Johnson’s Reef on the northwest shore of St. John Island in the U.S. Virgin Islands forms colorful peaks in this lidar image recorded by NASA’s Experimental Advanced Airborne Research Lidar (EAARL) in ...

Researchers have developed a compact and lightweight single-photon airborne lidar system that can acquire high-resolution 3D images with a low-power laser. This advance could make single-photon lidar ...

This LIDAR device from Lafayette College is similar to a device to be purchased for the Easton fire and police departments through a federal grant. It creates 3D interactive maps of crime scenes or ...
