Leica BLK Equipment

The Leica BLK3D

is a real-time, in-picture 3D measurement solution. By combining measurement sensors, software, and on-device edge data processing capabilities, the Leica BLK3D makes in-picture measurements with professional-grade accuracy in real-time possible. Every image captured is a complete and precise 3D measurement record.

Its edge computing capabilities eliminate the need for network connections and cloud services, ensuring professionals can make faster decisions within their daily workflows - whether measuring inaccessible locations, creating floor plans, estimating building installations, documenting construction site progress or creating measurable, as-built documentation.

Take a picture. Measure anything.

The BLK3D captures images and places precise measurements at your fingertips. Share images and measurements in multiple formats.

New dimensions for 2D pictures.

The BLK3D creates images that contain precise three-dimensional measurements.

The art of photogrammetry. Simplified.

Un-matched combination of a calibrated stereo-camera, advanced algorithms and real-time edge computing fused with leading Electronic Distance Measurement (EDM) technology.

Progressive project documentation for AEC.

Capture critical moments throughout the life of a building.

Access projects. Anywhere, anytime.

Measure in your image - on the handheld imager, on the desktop, on-site or in the office.

Object detection and snapping.

Auto-Snapping uses computer vision technologies to select the right points for your measurements.

Working with digital floorplans.

Create floorplans and import existing ones. Add measurable images. Document construction progress with multiple images over time.

Store. Organize. Share.

Store your measurable images on the device and on desktop. Organize your projects by tagging measurable images with searchable keywords for easy recall and share them in multiple formats.

The Leica BLK360 

captures the world around you with full-colour panoramic images overlaid on a high-accuracy point cloud. Simple to use with the single push of one button, the BLK360 is the smallest and lightest imaging laser scanner of its kind. Anyone who can operate an iPad can now capture the world around them with high resolution 3D panoramic images. 

Using Leica Cyclone FIELD 360 mobile-device app, the BLK360 streams image and point cloud data to an iPad or final project data to Cyclone REGISTER 360 or Cyclone REGISTER 360 (BLK Edition) via Wi-Fi. With automated workflows in both software offerings, the BLK360 plus the software solution of your choice, dramatically streamlines the reality capture process thereby opening this technology to non-surveying individuals. Simple export of LGS or RCP files makes working with point cloud data downstream in the Leica Geosystems and Autodesk suites simple and efficient, allowing users to spend less time processing data and more time creating meaningful deliverables.

Get the app today!

The Cyclone FIELD 360 mobile-device app is free to download. A valid Cyclone REGISTER, Cyclone REGISTER 360 or Cyclone REGISTER 360 (BLK Edition) license is required to activate Cyclone FIELD 360. Download the Cyclone FIELD 360 app from the App Store and Google Play.

DUAL AXIS LIDAR DOME

The smallest dual axis LiDAR available with best-in-class accuracy, enclosed in a fully protected and encapsulated dome that scans up to 700,000 points per second. Both axes constantly spin while scanning.

MULTICAMERA VISION SYSTEM

The BLK2GO's vision system is a 12 megapixel detail camera for brilliant high-contrast imagery plus three panoramic cameras for visual navigation via SLAM, point cloud colorization, and capture of panoramic imagery.

THE GRANDSLAM

The GRANDSLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) is a combination of high-speed dual axis LiDAR, multicamera vision system, and an inertial measurement unit that makes the BLK2GO self-navigating.

LIGHTWEIGHT ALUMINUM CONSTRUCTION

Weighing in 775 grams (1.7 lbs.) with battery, the BLK2GO's matte-finish aluminum construction allows for excellent dexterity and freedom of movement.

THE SMARTEST HANDLE

The BLK2GO's handle contains WLAN connectivity, a rechargeable battery capable of 45 minutes of continuous scanning, data storage for six hours of scans, a USB-C port for fast data transfer, and edge computing.

ADVANCED LIGHTGUIDE

The multicolored and multisegmented lightguide that encircles the BLK2GO is simple, intuitive, and communicative to users of all skill levels. It provides user guidance while scanning and communicates the device status and data quality.
