At LiDAR Solutions Australia, we are always on the lookout for cutting-edge technology that enhances efficiency and accuracy in field surveying. Since receiving our OmniSLAM R8+ demo unit in late February, we’ve tested its capabilities across diverse environments—and the results have exceeded expectations.
This handheld LiDAR powerhouse delivers millimeter-level accuracy, real-world colorization, and effortless geo-referencing, all in a compact, travel-friendly design. Whether you’re surveying urban landscapes, historic sites, or complex terrains, the OmniSLAM R8+ brings precision and portability together like never before.
Why the OmniSLAM R8+ is a Game-Changer
Unmatched Accuracy for Critical Projects
The OmniSLAM R8+ delivers millimeter precision, making it ideal for industries requiring extreme accuracy, such as architecture, construction, engineering, and heritage conservation. Every scan captures intricate details with reliability you can trust.
True-to-Life Colorization—No Gaussian Splatting Required
Unlike traditional LiDAR systems that require post-processing for color rendering, the R8+ captures real-world environments in stunning, true-to-life colors. The attached scan of the Shrine of Remembrance in Melbourne showcases its ability to capture fine architectural details with incredible clarity.
RTK & PPK Geo-Referencing Flexibility
Generating accurate geo-referenced point cloud data has never been easier. The OmniSLAM R8+ supports RTK (Real-Time Kinematics) and PPK (Post-Processed Kinematics), ensuring precision even in areas with unstable base station connectivity.
Portability Designed for Field Professionals
Weighing significantly less than traditional survey-grade LiDAR systems, the R8+ is lightweight, intuitive, and built for efficiency in the field. Whether navigating tight spaces, historic buildings, or challenging outdoor environments, it offers the freedom to scan on the move without compromising accuracy.
Featured Scan: Shrine of Remembrance, Melbourne
Our recent scan of the Shrine of Remembrance demonstrates the OmniSLAM R8+’s ability to capture intricate architectural details with precision. This is not a digital render—it’s raw, colorized point cloud data that proves the power of true-to-life LiDAR scanning.
