This high density system is said to be five times faster than previous generation tools, while weighing in at just 18kg. Scanning at 700,000 points/second, the system is said to offer data-rich results with its 30MP panoramic imagery and offers a mobile mapping powerhouse, according to the firm. The company says that this high-density and high-resolution camera comes in a unit that is much smaller than its predecessors. The system is used with the Topcon Mobile Master Office software to carry out post-processing functions in a single application. And the company says that the Mobile Master Office software provides a comprehensive workflow in a single package, which can turn raw sensor data collected by the IP-S3 system into rich and precise point clouds and images.
