Why It Performs

High-End LiDAR, Made Accessible

Greater range, density, and precision than the rest of the 500 Series — with plug-and-play TrueView integration and the full LP360 software stack.

400 m Range, 500 kHz

A CHCNAV AA10 single-beam 1550 nm laser scanner with up to 8 returns reaches targets at 400 m for > 20% reflectivity — high density across large sites.

45 MP Calibrated Camera

A full-frame 45 MP global shutter camera with just 0.3 pixel of motion blur at 5 m/s, 80 m — crisp colorization and photogrammetry.

Engineering-Grade Accuracy

15 mm accuracy and 5 mm precision (1σ at 150 m), with typical 3 cm RMSE global accuracy for survey-ready deliverables.

Plug-and-Play TrueView

Quick-connect to drone and compatible with other TrueView payloads (such as the TV720 and TV535) for a flexible, swappable fleet.
