The PENTAX Scanning System S-2100 has a 360⁰ vertical field of view and is the fastest 2D laster measurement system in the world. With a scan rate of more than 1 million points per second and a maximum scan speed of 200 profiles / sec., very short distances between profiles can be achieved even at high speeds. The high point density ensures that even the smallest objects can be registered and processed by the software. The new laser measurement system is classified “eyesafe” in laser class 1. Thus, allowing the scanner to be used in urban environments without any restrictions. A hardware-assisted pixel-by-pixel synchronization, that has been previously perfected by us, makes it possible to process external signals to determine the position of the scan data.
