RIEGL VUX-SYS

Product catalog summary

Overview: The RIEGL VUX-SYS is a fully integrated, lightweight, and compact laser scanning system designed for kinematic applications such as UAVs, helicopters, and other aerial platforms. It combines a RIEGL VUX-1 Series LiDAR Sensor with an IMU/GNSS system and, if necessary, a control unit, providing survey-grade measurement accuracy.

Key Features:

  • Complete, compact, and lightweight kinematic LiDAR system.
  • Fully integrated with RIEGL VUX-1 Series LiDAR sensor.
  • Flexible installation options with remote control capabilities.
  • Operates up to four digital cameras.
  • Includes software tools for data processing and geo-referencing.

Applications: The system is suitable for corridor mapping, terrain and canyon mapping, urban environment surveying, topography in mining, agriculture, forestry, archaeology, cultural heritage documentation, and construction-site monitoring.

Technical Specifications:

  • Dimensions and Weight: Varies based on configuration, with the VUX-1 with IMU weighing approximately 4.2 kg.
  • Performance: Maximum range up to 1,845 m, accuracy of 15 mm, and precision of 5 mm. Laser pulse repetition rate up to 1,500 kHz.
  • Data Interfaces: LAN and USB for data output, with internal SSD storage of 1TB.
  • IMU & GNSS: Various configurations available with different accuracy levels for roll, pitch, and heading.

Integration Options: The VUX-SYS can be integrated into different platforms such as the RIEGL VP-1 HeliCopterPod, RiCOPTER UAV, and VMQ Mobile Mapping System, each with specific components and configurations.

Installation and Setup: Designed for quick installation and removal with minimal cabling, the system can be mounted on various vehicles using quick-release adapter brackets.

RIEGL VUX-SYS-1

Complete Sensor System for Kinematic Laser Scanning • complete, compact & lightweight kinematic LiDAR system • fully integrated RIEGL VUX-1 Series LiDAR sensor • various mounting options for highly flexible installation • repared for remote control via p low-bandwidth data link • fully integrated system versions with application-oriented IMU/GNSS unit • compact control unit with various interfacing options • operates up to 4 digital cameras The RIEGL VUX-SYS is a completely integrated laser scanning system of low weight and compact size for flexible use in kinematic applications (e.g. UAS/UAV/RPAS, helicopter, gyrocopter and ultra-light aircraft installations). The system comprises a RIEGL VUX-1 Series LiDAR Sensor, an IMU/GNSS system and - if applicable - a dedicated control unit. The excellent measurement performance of the VUX-1 in combination with the precise inertial measurement unit and the associated GPS/GLONASS receiver results in survey-grade measurement accuracy over its full range of applications. The VUX-SYS is specifically designed to be easily installed or exchanged by the user, alternatively either in the RIEGL VP-1 HeliCopterPod, the RiCOPTER unmanned aerial system, or in any kinematic measuring system, whatsoever. The VUX-SYS provides interfaces for controlling up to four digital cameras. When installed in the VP-1 HeliCopterPod or the RiCOPTER UAV the VUX-SYS is complemented by up to two cameras. The small size, low weight, and small number of interconnecting cables required account for a very short set-up time of the system. The VUX-SYS is delivered with the necessary software tools for processing scan data as well as IMU/GNSS data. Based on the software bundle RiPROCESS and its associated software tools, scan data is geo-referenced, calibrated and exported fully automatically. RIEGL offers an optional system calibration service. Typical applications include • Corridor Mapping: Power Line, Railway Track, and Pipeline Inspection • Terrain and Canyon Mapping • Surveying of Urban Environments • Topography in Open-Cast Mining • Agriculture & Forestry • Archeology and Cultural Heritage Documentation • Construction-Site Monitoring visit our website www.riegl.com
