Whitepaper: Comparing the Elios 3's LiDAR Payloads
How does the Elios 3’s Rev 7 LiDAR in the Surveying Payload compare to the standard Rev 6 version? Our whitepaper compares the accuracy of both sensors to determine the level of accuracy possible with each scanner.
As part of its data collection toolkit, the Elios 3 hosts a powerful LiDAR scanner. This scanner, when used in combination with custom firmware that's included with the Surveying Payload, can achieve incredibly accurate results.
In this whitepaper authored by Flyability, the LiDAR sensor and its accompanying Surveying Payload software, FARO Connect, are tested and compared with the previous LiDAR payload. The new LiDAR, a Rev 7 model, has greater range and accuracy than the standard Rev 6 edition.
The contents of this whitepaper include an overview of the new and old LiDAR sensors and comparisons of their different capabilities. We have shared detailed tables to express the changes between models as well as explain the value of the Surveying Payload software that accompanies the Rev 7 model. The paper concludes with guidance over which payload best suits your needs according to the projects you take on.
