Lidar drone sensors capture imagery and provide drone operators with accurate 3D mapping instantly. A few years ago to get the same imagery, a large aircraft with heavy Lidar sensors was used. Lidar sensors are becoming increasingly diverse and drone technology keeps on changing so are the sensors. By buying the latest commercial drones …
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 …
Ships rely on S-band and X-band frequency radar systems for navigation and detection of incoming ships or land obstacles to avoid a collision. The radars use a rotating antenna to discover the surrounding area of the ship. It can detect targets and display the information on the screen. Radar is an important component of every …
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 …
Radar technology has been around for the longest time now. It is applicable in a variety of industries and its usage spans a number of applications. One such application is in the weather. A weather radar is mostly used in the collection of data regarding the weather and its components. In this paper, we look …
LiDAR is an acronym for Light Detection and Ranging. It is an active remote sensing technology that measures distance by illuminating a target with a laser and analyzing the reflected light. It is similar to RADAR but instead of using radio signals, it uses laser pulses. LiDAR depends on Infrared, ultraviolet, and visible rays to …
LiDAR stands for Light Detection and Ranging. It is a remote sensing technology that uses laser lights to strike features and then record the pulses generated to create 3D models of the objects. LiDAR data is currently being utilized in a variety of fields including but not limited to agriculture, automobile, and so on. The …
LiDAR, Radar, and Sonar are the modern remote sensing techniques used by various professionals to collect and analyze data. The main difference between these technologies is they use different mediums to send signals to and from the objects and then analyze the time taken to measure the distance between the transmitter and the objects. Radar …
LiDAR technology has penetrated most of the industries with the major ones being construction and automotive. Because of its precise data collection and accuracy, it is one of the most preferred remote sensing technologies in the world today. While LiDAR comes with a lot of advantages, there are some limitations of LiDAR that make it …
