Autonomous UAV Scanning

Autonomous UAV Scanning

Blaze through job sites with rapid scanning that doesn’t compromise on quality. Your work is faster, your job is easier, and you get the data you need right away.

Full Dome LiDAR Sensor

Full Dome LiDAR Sensor

The full-dome laser scanner aboard the BLK2FLY captures 3D point clouds in all directions.

GrandSLAM

GrandSLAM

The BLK2FLY takes GrandSLAM technology even further. LiDAR SLAM, Visual SLAM, radar, and GNSS make the BLK2FLY fully autonomous, easy to use, and able to fly safely and accurately on its own.

Complete scanning with advanced obstacle avoidance

Use Cases

Construction

The BLK2FLY will help scan and survey your construction site from the air, automatically avoiding any obstacles and scanning the scene from a new perspective.

BIM

BLK2FLY will autonomously scan the entire exterior of a building from the air with high degrees of accuracy to gather BIM data, and it only requires minimal training to operate.

Architecture

Easily document as-built conditions for retrofits and redesigns with the BLK2FLY, which offers an autonomous yet simple method for drone-based reality capture.

UAV Mapping

The BLK2FLY integrates all UAV systems including LiDAR and Visual SLAM, radar, and GNSS with the ability to autonomously scan—and it’s a portable, easy to use device.
