Development of the world's first fully integrated LiDAR Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) for Leica Geosystems
The world's first fully integrated LiDAR unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), developed by Burkhard Boeckem for Leica, highlights the company's dedication to being the leader in digital reality solutions, fusing sensors, software, and autonomous technologies to enable an autonomous future.
The Leica BLK2FLY is an autonomous flying laser scanner for simple UAV scanning that has cutting-edge obstacle avoidance technology.
The outside characteristics and measurements of buildings, structures, and other settings may now be rapidly and simply captured by anyone without the need for a standard drone or UAV equipped with a LiDAR or photogrammetry payload.
The BLK2FLY is controlled by a person making a few quick taps on a tablet, and it independently and completely measures an object from the air.
Traditional UAVs may perform aerial reality capture and photogrammetry, but because they frequently scan from the top-down, their scans frequently have shadows, partial textures, or missing details.
By taking pictures of exteriors of buildings, structures, and environments and creating 3D point clouds while flying, the BLK2FLY overcomes these difficulties.
The BLK2FLY, which uses SLAM technology, includes fast, autonomous laser scanning, completely integrated sensors, superior obstacle avoidance for simple UAV scanning, portable transportation, and quick in-field setup.
The BLK2FLY does not need any particular training other than a UAV pilot's license and is operated by a companion app on a tablet to enable for quick, uncomplicated scanning.
The BLK2FLY debuts the most cutting-edge autonomous obstacle avoidance system for the next generation of flying safety.
The best and safest flying paths are guaranteed using SLAM technology and sensor fusion of LiDAR, radar, cameras, and GNSS.
Building information modeling (BIM) procedures use the resulting colored 3D point clouds to document site conditions, among other things.
All required information and measurements are provided by the resulting scans.
Users can quickly and simply scan structures and settings precisely and completely from the air with simple tablet control.
Airborne scanning ensures thorough capture of a structure's exterior features and measurements across a variety of businesses that require accurate data on difficult-to-reach or inaccessible areas (such as façade projections, rooftops).
While the BLK2FLY scans inaccessible locations, the user can stay in a secure location.
Additionally, the BLK2FLY helps businesses save time and money that would have otherwise been spent attempting to precisely capture hazardous or difficult-to-reach locations.
These financial savings include personnel costs, expenditures on other technology, and potential insurance and safety hazards.
Additionally, the product's capability to accurately capture an area guarantees that return journeys are not necessary while simultaneously producing digital documentation of a location for later use.
