Hopefully the blk2go fills that gap!

We have a BLK360, and while it does have some intelligence built in, it uses sheer force by blasting all surfaces with billions of points to collect that sort of data. The newer model RTC360 has some neat features in VIS that are starting to approach the intelligence aspect but it is far more expensive.

I still want something in between. Smaller, simpler, smarter. Machine learning is already recognizing objects within photographs, surely feeding it dimensional data would make it more precise. Once it understands what it is looking at, store it as a low-cost 3d model representation rather than trillions of point cloud points.

Don’t mind me, I’m just the kid in the backseat repeatedly asking “are we there yet.” 🙂
I guess I should get back to registering all these blasted point clouds *pun intended*

Hi Ben. Actually, Leica does have a machine that is similar to what you described and uses LiDAR, the BLK360 https://360rumors.com/leica-blk360-is-lidar-camera-with-true/ It costs $18,500.

It needs to be on a motorized gimbal tripod, let me set it in a room and do the legwork itself.
