ROCK Robotic, a LIDAR technology company, is introducing the R3 and R3 PRO mapping systems. With features like geodetic-grade GNSS receivers, high-resolution RGB image capture, and tactical-grade IMU, the R3 lineup is a great option for surveyors, engineering, mining, utility, and mapping professionals. Compared to the previous model, the device weighs just 1.26 kg, making it perfect for traveling. The 'R3 PRO' uses the improved Hesai Pandar XT32 sensor, while the R3 uses the Hesai Pandar XT16 sensor.
"The ROCK R3 PRO is a major step forward for ROCK Robotic," said ROCK Robotic CEO Harrison Knoll. "It offers better accuracy, better SLAM, a better camera, a lighter payload — basically a better product all around. Not only will our current customers love it, but we’re confident that the R3 will attract new customers who want a great hardware product along with our great software and support."
