Can the XGRIDS Lixel K1 be drone-mounted?

No, the Lixel K1 can not be drone-mounted. It is a handheld scanner, only. For a drone-mounted option, upgrade to the XGRIDS Lixel L2.

How accurate is the XGRIDS Lixel K1?

The LiDAR module on the XGRIDS Lixel K1 can yield an accuracy of 1.2cm.

Can the XGRIDS Lixel K1 produce colourised point clouds?

Yes. The K1's combination of laser point clouds and 56MP imaging allows it to generate richly-coloured and finely detailed 3D point cloud models in real-time.

What is the difference between the XGRIDS Lixel K1 and the XGRIDS Lixel L2 scanners?

Lixel K1: The K1's 40-channel LiDAR module has a 40m scan range and can scan 200,000 points per seconds. Lixel L2-16 channel: The Lixel L2 16-channel LiDAR scanner has a 120m scan range and can scan 320,000p/s. Lixel L2-32 channel: The Lixel L2 32-channel LiDAR scanner has a 300m scan range and can scan 640,000p/s for a broader scanning perspective and upgraded point-cloud quality. The Lixel K1 cannot be drone-mounted, but the Lixel L2 can.
