The VZ-400i provides an integrated 3G/4G LTE modem, Wi-Fi, and Ethernet communications hardware. With its integrated orientation sensor (MEMS IMU, compass, and barometer), the VZ-400i’s up to 1200 kHz pulse repetition rate can be fully utilized in many environments and orientations. The system provides a high range of flexibility by supporting numerous external peripherals and accessories via its integrated USB ports and stable mounting points. Typical applications include • As-Built Surveying • Architecture & Facade Measurement • Archeology & Cultural Heritage Documentation • Building Information Modeling (BIM) • Forensics & Crash Scene Investigation • City Modeling • Tunnel Surveying • Civil Engineering • Forestry • Research • Monitoring

RIEGL VZ®-400i Optional Equipment and Software Camera Option A high-precision mount enables the integration of an optional DSLR camera. The camera can be easily integrated into the mount by means of two screws. Precise position and orientation of the camera is enabled by three supporting points. Power supply and a USB interface are provided via the scanner directly. The combination of scanner, software, and camera results in photorealistic 3D data, exact identification of details, positions, and distance measurements, as well as a re-creation of any virtual point of view. A new feature enables...

VZ®-i Series Cloud Connectivity The RIEGL VZ-i Series provides cloud connectivity via either the 3G/4G LTE, Wi-Fi network, or LAN. The content uploaded to, stored in, and downloaded from the cloud, as well as the appropriate cloud storage provider or FTP server are user definable. The defined data then is transferred to the cloud after finishing each scan. Supported cloud storage currently includes Amazon S3 and Microsoft Azure. Cloud Storage (Data stored in VZ-i Series project structure) Compatible Cloud Storage Options: Amazon S3 FTP Server Microsoft Azure data email e.g. .kml file e.g. .json...
