As the world continues to advance in the latest surveying and monitoring technologies based on LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging), there is a huge potential of applying these technologies on the diverse terrain of India. Although earlier there were challenges for Indian companies to invest in the LiDAR technology, given stringent regulations on capturing aerial…
Surveying and mapping technologies have come a long way in the last few years, of which one is LiDAR. LiDAR stands for Light Detection and Ranging and is used to locate objects and their positions based on how far it is from the light-emitting source. As the name suggests, a light source is used to…
RADAR is an abbreviation that stands for Radio Detection and Ranging System. It is generally an electromagnetic system that detects the distance and location of an object. It has a Radar transmitter that relies on the principle of reflection when capturing data. Basically, the radio waves are transmitted through space and onto the objects. The…
LIDAR is an abbreviation for light detection and ranging. It is basically a system of data collection that uses laser pulses and the time of flight calculation in order to capture large quantities of data. One notable thing about this method is the fact that it’s incredibly accurate. Over time, there have been various advancements…
Radar also commonly known as Radio detection and ranging has been the talk of the town for the last few years. It has actually become a very important tool for predicting the weather. This technology was brought to light by Britain and the U.S during the second World War. Although this technology was not used…
People are coming up with different technologies all with the aim of easing the whole human operation speed. Today the LIDAR and the LASER technology have become a go for and many people are talking about the opportunities that these technologies are offering and the ones they will offer in the future. With the definition…
Lidar drone sensors capture imagery and provide drone operators with accurate 3D mapping instantly. In some few years ago to get the same imagery, a large aircraft with heavy Lidar sensors were used. Lidar sensors are becoming increasingly diverse and the drone technology keeps on changing so are the sensors. Buying the latest commercial…
Image source: extremetech.com Lidar systems and depth cameras have become part of today’s depth-sensors in the digital market. The sensors supplement the current monocular RGB images by providing per-pixel depth information of the target objects. The depth- sensors accurately measure the distance and wavelength of a target object and return a 3D representation. Although the…
Lidar and photogrammetry technologies are almost similar but different at the same time based on the techniques used. Lidar is a light Detection and ranging technology that uses laser beams. Photogrammetry transforms the 2D images into 3D models. Lidar and photogrammetry have different use cases with different conditions and deliverables. The two technologies offer fast…
LiDAR technology continues to make valuable changes in the global industries in almost all spheres of life. The technology has made it possible for manufacturers to design automated vehicles and for the military to conduct covert operations across the globe. Below are some of the companies that deal with LiDAR in Canada. Teledyne Optec…
