Overview
The RESEPI Velodyne VLP-32C drone LiDAR payload from Inertial Labs, equipped with VELODYNE’s VLP-32C LiDAR sensor, offers one of the most well-known VELODYNE lasers combined with RESEPI. Being the matured and systematically improved version of its predecessor, the VLP-16, this laser provides improved vertical FOV, point density, and range to assure users that all users are well equipped for any scan with a wide variety of flight parameters.
RESEPI™ (Remote Sensing Payload Instrument) is a sensor-fusion platform designed for accuracy-focused remote sensing applications. RESEPI utilizes a high-performance Inertial Labs INS (GPS-Aided Inertial Navigation System) with a tactical-grade IMU and a high-accuracy single or dual-antenna GNSS receiver, integrated with a Linux-based processing core and data-logging software. The platform also provides a WiFi interface, optional imaging module, and external cellular modem for RTCM corrections. RESEPI can be operated by a single hardware button or from a wirelessly connected device via a simple web interface.
ApplicationsThe RESEPI VLP-32 aerial LiDAR solution was strategically integrated for its high vertical FOV of 40° and low beam divergence of 0.17° (H), 0.09° (V) for multiple application bases with mounting options for mobile vehicles, DJI supported drones (DJI M300, M600 Pro), custom drones, handheld platforms, autonomous vehicles, the Freefly Alta-X, and many more. Because of this diverse mounting portfolio and its 360 FOV, the RESEPI can be used for many services, including construction volumetrics, site surveying, precision agriculture, forestry, and much more.
