3D Laser Scanning Services

Safer Non-Contact Technologies

You and your people are more valuable than any project. 3D laser scanning eliminates the need for hours of straining necks and backs or being precariously perched on scaffolding. Historic restoration can be a delicate process; by using LiDAR to measure every detail, the only thing touching that hand-carved mantle or delicate wallpaper is invisible light. Rather than putting the weight of a human on those century-old boards, just let our 3D laser scanner measure the slope of the floor. Current technology does not even need targets – today there is even less contact than in the previous iteration of scanning. Not only will Rogue Visual Design complete all the measuring for you, but we also won’t need to put ourselves in precarious positions. The scanner limits the need to place people in harmful environments for extended amounts of time and limits the possibility of damaging historic sites. Work at heights, heavy mold, or other hazardous exposures are no longer necessary evils for your projects. The Rogue Visual Design team can set up the scanner, leave the environment, and control the scanning from an adjacent location.

FASTER

The scanner measures up to two million points per second. Let that sink in. Two million measurements per second. Rogue Visual Design takes care of performing the on-site surveys and inspections, in less time than conventional methods. With surveys completed quicker, there is also a rapid turnaround of those great 3D models every client likes. Thus, your project planning kicks into high gear at a faster rate, due to accurate as-build records.

MORE ACCURATE

• Faster is not always better, but in this case, it is. If you have drawings of the current structure, do you trust those drawings? Are they completely up to date? Even if they are up to date, how much information is included? Laser scanning can create millimeter accurate measurements of every surface detail scanned.
  • With traditional methods, it’s not uncommon for your team to have to plan for an error of 6” to 12”. What a waste of time and effort! Now your whole team will breathe a sigh of relief as they fly through the design process because they can trust the superior accuracy that comes with 3D scanning.
  • This information also enables you to create more accurate off-site fabrication, ensuring first-time fit installations of every pipe, conduit, or custom furniture piece.
  • You can get more detailed measurements of what seem to be naturally flat surfaces, such as floors and walls

Fewer personnel on site

A non-intrusive one or two-person team of LiDAR specialists from Rogue Visual Design can capture more information in a fraction of the time than a whole crew of people using traditional methods. Your team can to stay in the office and focus on the next step in your project. Your organization completes more projects in less time!

Virtual site visits 24/7

With a professionally scanned site, you can work on your project at any time of the day or night, without the headache of another physical walk-through. Your team can open the point cloud and do a virtual site visit to confirm the pipe configuration, window location, or steel framing. You can confidently confirm, measure, and see all the current site conditions and locations, all from the comfort of your computer.

FEWER SITE VISITS

Did you forget to measure the exact location of the cluster of large conduits in the back? Which dimension down that hall is correct? Did the project scope change and your team lacks critical information? Don’t worry about it! The huge amount of comprehensive data Rogue Visual Design collected in the laser scan of the site means you won’t have to return for that additional information – the scanner already captured it. You will also be able to reduce overall schedule upsets when needing to rework any details.
