Leica BLK2FLY Autonomous Flying Laser Scanner

Description

Product Description

The Leica BLK2FLY is an autonomous flying laser scanner with advanced obstacle avoidance for easy reality capture from the sky. It captures building exteriors, structures, and environments to create 3D point clouds while flying.

The BLK2FLY is designed to be easy-to-use: with a few simple taps on a tablet, users can set the BLK2FLY aloft to autonomously scan building exteriors and features, such as hard-to-access areas like rooftops and facades.

Deploying the device itself is as easy as unfolding it, switching it on with the press of a button and placing it on the ground, ready for takeoff.

BLK2FLY autonomous flying laser scanner

• Allows you to scan hard-to-reach areas like building facades and rooftops
• Autonomously captures complete scans of building exteriors to create 3D digital twins
• GrandSLAM sensor fusion of LiDAR, radar, cameras, and GNSS for complete scan coverage, optimized flight paths, and shortest return to home
• Advanced obstacle avoidance for superior flight safety
• Hot swap battery system
• Lightweight, portable, easy to use

No Drone Experience? No Problem – You set the mission and BLK2FLY does the rest

Users control the BLK2FLY through the BLK2FLY Live App on a tablet for simplified, app-based flying with no need for prior UAV experience. This allows for easy, intuitive control of the BLK2FLY, including live camera feed.

Map an Area

You can select an area within the map on your tablet and the BLK2FLY will create its own flight path to scan it quickly and safely.

Tap-to-Scan

You can also tap-to-scan: simply send the BLK2FLY to scan a new area by tapping anywhere on the 3D view in the app.

Simplified App-based Flying

The BLK2FLY Live App also allows you to pilot the BLK2FLY manually with virtual joysticks on your tablet. This critical safety feature always keeps you in control. And for connectivity, the BLK2FLY includes WLAN and LTE communication channels to the tablet for nearly unlimited communication range during flight.

Autonomous UAV Scanning

The BLK2FLY intelligently incorporates the environment around it into its flight plans. It keeps the correct distance for ideal scanning and formulates optimized flight routes for return to home.

Full Dome LiDAR sensor

The enclosed, full dome laser scanner onboard the BLK2FLY captures 3D point clouds in all directions.

GrandSLAM

BLK2FLY takes GrandSLAM technology even further. LiDAR SLAM, Visual SLAM, radar, and GNSS make the BLK2FLY fully autonomous, easy to use, and able to fly safely and accurately on its own.

Complete scanning with advanced obstacle avoidance

BLK2FLY uses omnidirectional radar and LiDAR to avoid obstacles for accurate, uninterrupted, and safe scanning.

Hot swap batteries

The hot swap battery system keeps you flying. The BLK2FLY will return to you during the scan for new batteries and then continue along its mission.

Indoor Mode

Open new worlds of scanning possibilities.

Scan interiors of large arenas, stadiums, facilities, plants, and even obscured or confined outdoor areas with the BLK2FLY’s Indoor Mode, which allows the BLK2FLY to get closer to objects with reduced flight speed and to fly within confined spaces without access to GNSS.

With advanced obstacle avoidance and increased visual SLAM capabilities, the BLK2FLY’s Indoor Mode makes scanning inside fast, easy, and versatile. And you can combine indoor scan data with outdoor scan data to create a complete model of anything you capture, inside and out.

Portability

BLK2FLY is lightweight (2.6kg) and easily folds into a transportation case with all accessories.

Two Simple BLK2FLY Workflows

The BLK2FLY makes it easy to get your data into your preferred software and to share your scans with others. It also works seamlessly with other Leica Geosystems sensors and software.

Direct Upload to the Cloud via HxDR

Directly upload your data to HxDR with automatic conversion to OBJ and cloud-based visualization.

You can also allow others to access and work with your data, including data download, via HxDR.

Fast Transfer to Your Computer

Transfer your data to Leica Cyclone REGISTER 360 with USB-C or WLAN for scan-to-BIM workflows.

The BLK2FLY is changing UAV and laser scanning workflows across multiple industries worldwide.

BLK2FLY Use Cases

Construction

BLK2FLY helps you easily document your construction progress, every step of the way, by saving time, gaining accuracy, and achieving better LiDAR coverage with an autonomous UAV scanning workflow.

BIM

BLK2FLY will autonomously scan the entire exterior of a building from the air with high degrees of accuracy to gather BIM data, and it only requires minimal training to operate.

Architecture

Easily document as-built conditions for retrofits and redesigns with the BLK2FLY, which offers an autonomous yet simple method for drone-based reality capture.

UAV Mapping

The BLK2FLY integrates all UAV systems including LiDAR and Visual SLAM, radar, and GNSS with the ability to autonomously scan—and it’s a portable, easy to use device.
