LiDAR Mobile Mapping (R3 Pro)

[@ByronBNE]

Nice works guys! And hey Leo! It’s Byron from UQMC. A cool surprise to see you on this channel 🙂 no wonder the data looks so good!

[@IndianaDrones]

Leo is the best!

[@Erdal_Gumus]

Hey Knoll, I've been in the field for over 20 years and I've never had such a cool data collection experience, cheers.

[@IndianaDrones]

Love to hear it!

[@Daniel-qr6sx]

there wasn't much in terms of waves this day. But did you think about using double gps on the boat? How to you account for yaw roll and pitch ?

*Can Lidar see through swimsuits? When I was a kid I bought Xray vision glasses off the back of a cereal box and it was just a bunch of feathers glued to inside of sunglasses.*

[@IndianaDrones]

Haha! I remember those! What a huge letdown!

[@1nvisible1]

*I wish Discovery would hire you for "Oak Island" just to end that show once and for all.* *"Yep, nothing here. Never has been."*

[@IndianaDrones]

Ha!

[@bashardawood8743]

Awesome, I saw the data and looking great

[@IndianaDrones]

You know it! Appreciate the comment.

[@bashardawood8743]

Regarding the GSNN, does it add accuracy to the scan, also can i use the emlid GNSS

[@500label]

Leading the Way , Best of Luck

[@IndianaDrones]

Thank you!

[@akinshok]

Pretty Awesome! Looks Great!

[@IndianaDrones]

Thank you! I think so too!

[@Anonymous_Whisper]

Good times

[@IndianaDrones]

The best!

@@IndianaDrones I've been busy but ime back. And I have better cash flow. I am ready to get into the drone game.

[@tomgivney5396]

Is the gps system shown here PPK or RTK. If RTK, does the GPS correct for slam drift real time or in post processing?

[@IndianaDrones]

No drift. This is all Tightly coupled ppk

[@benworland4507]

Hey Guys, Did you do any data check shots, with the GPS, around the shoreline to verify the lidar data? If so, that would be great to see.

[@Tpolsky90]

Very cool. After collecting the static did reversing the boat before going forward to do the calibrations corrupt the data? I know if you fly the UAS backwards that can corrupt a whole mission.

[@arron7857]

That's pretty awesome. Would it be possible to attach the R3 to a mountain bike and ride the trail around the lake then combine it to this dataset ?

[@akinshok]

maybe mount it on a DJI Ronin for stabilization? 😁

[@IndianaDrones]

It would be possible! Just a little exhausting...

[@kalrutter]

What laptop is Leo using?

[@nguyenxuanai4726]

I'm in Vietnam, I want to know the price of this system. thank you!

[@IndianaDrones]

Just hit us up and we'll get you the info you need! www.rockrobotic.com/talk-to-sales

[@SteinerMediaGBC]

What GPS are you using with the R3Pro?

[@Tpolsky90]

Curious about this too. What antenna is that?

[@timd9430]

Looks like 1 of many multiband antennas available for use with a receiver such as a Emlid M2. Not sure why they just didn't use the Emlid RS2 rover with the base? Curious.... reason for this?

[@SteinerMediaGBC]

Well my next question is are we able to hook a Trimble R12 to these units?

[@IndianaDrones]

It’s the antenna from ROCK Base: www.rockrobotic.com/rock-base

[@adjieadjah]

Is the LiDAR just scanning the surfaces only, wat bout scanning the underwater topography like sonar...?

[@timd9430]

Doesn't work underwater... refraction.

[@IndianaDrones]

Just the surface on this one ☝️

[@pascalpiquemal3763]

Some type of lidars can "see" through water (aerial bathymetry) but that is a totally other level of price. Here usual answer is to add multibeam echosounder on the side of the boat.

[@daveinmontana77]

Hey Harrison... nice job with you and your crew. I have a "dumb" question... why use a boat? Wouldn't your M300 or M350 shoot that entire lake and shoreline in 2 or 3 drone passes? What is the advantage of shooting LiDAR on a boat vs. using your drone? Just curious...

[@timd9430]

Boat ride.

[@IndianaDrones]

Because boats are cool! And we wanted to show the capabilities of LiDAR using a mobile approach.

[@luex2k]

Careful.. the IMU for accurate collection need heave compensation. So you'll sell them a point cloud generating machine and won't product absolute accuracies they would expect in a MMS unit. You should know this??
