Emesent Gx1 Slam Rtk Scanner Sets a New Standard

Across measurement-heavy projects worldwide, a new benchmark has arrived: the Emesent GX1 pairs independently verified five‑to‑ten millimeter absolute precision with the pace of portable capture, giving the AEC community and surveying teams proof they can defend.

Emesent Launches GX1 for Mobile Mapping

Drawing on deep robotics research, a next‑generation instrument steps forward; Emesent today introduced GX1, an integrated system combining SLAM with RTK that pushes scanner precision to a new high. For teams who document space at scale, capabilities converge here, uniting the sensing stack and imaging inside one compact unit.

Global Accuracy and RTK Precision

In head‑to‑head checks against legacy methods, verified absolute error stays within five to ten millimeters, unlocking certainty for topographic work and civil builds. On past jobs that consumed entire schedules, the duration can drop by about ninety‑five percent, often compressing into one day of mobile scanning for survey teams.

All-in-One SLAM-Based Lidar Workflow

From capture through quality‑checked outputs, an end‑to‑end package fuses the sensor, an RTK engine, panoramic imagery, and software automation. By uniting these modules, the system carries field‑proven methods into routine surveying, including SLAM technology that thrives in GPS‑denied spaces, and removes the old speed‑versus‑accuracy trade‑off while streamlining the workflow.

Deployment Options: Backpack, Handheld, and Vehicle Mount

Across transportation corridors, sites under development, and BIM creation, teams will find the GX1 straightforward to learn—new surveyors can be productive within days—while seasoned specialists get the headroom they expect for topographic mapping and road work.To minimize costly revisits, crews get options: backpack rig, pole for surveying, vehicle‑mounted kit, and a supported hand grip, with RTK capture on‑site or control points applied in post — Emesent GX1.For defensible measurements, teams can rely on repeatable results reaching five‑to‑ten millimeters of absolute accuracy while scanning fast; a client‑focused design with integrated RTK and a proprietary SLAM algorithm underpins this — GX1.Across some of the harshest underground sites on earth, validation of the algorithm behind Hovermap shows consistent indoor‑outdoor accuracy, even in GPS‑denied conditions where competing SLAM systems often drift — Emesent.
