Fly: Aerial Mapping Perfected.

Mount on DJI M300/M350 or custom drones for efficient aerial surveying. With 360° coverage and optimized 60m AGL flight altitude, map 50-100 hectares per flight. The 16 laser channels deliver professional point clouds with dual returns, capturing both canopy and ground in a single pass. Perfect for topographic surveys, construction monitoring, and volumetric calculations.

Drive: Highway-Speed Corridor Mapping.

Transform to vehicle-mounted mobile mapping in minutes. Capture road corridors, railways, and infrastructure at highway speeds with continuous 360° scanning. The tactical-grade IMU maintains accuracy through GPS outages under bridges and tunnels. Ideal for transportation planning, asset management, and utility corridor surveys—all using the same sensor and workflow.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between the R3 and R3 Pro?

The R3 Pro doubles the laser channels (32 vs 16) and point density (1.28M vs 640k pts/sec). Both share the same high-precision IMU and 5mm range accuracy. The Pro excels in vegetation and is ready for vehicle/handheld mounting, while the standard R3 is perfect for aerial-focused operations at a lower entry point.

How does the 3-in-1 capability actually work?

The R3 V2 uses universal mounting hardware that quickly adapts between platforms. For aerial, mount on DJI SkyPort. For mobile, attach to vehicle roof rack. For handheld, add the SLAM DOCK V2 backpack. All data flows through the same ROCK Desktop/Cloud workflow—no separate software or training needed.

Do I need SLAM for indoor scanning?

Yes, the SLAM DOCK V2 upgrade enables scanning without GPS. It creates hybrid GPS-SLAM trajectories that seamlessly transition between outdoor and indoor environments. Perfect for complete building surveys, mines, or dense forest where GPS is unreliable.

What drones are compatible?

The R3 series works with DJI M300/M350 (via SkyPort), M600, Inspired Flight IF800, and Freefly Alta platforms. At just 1.26kg with camera, it maintains excellent flight times. We provide mounting kits and integration support for all compatible platforms.

How does this compare to the ROCK Ultra?

The Ultra is our long-range specialist (1000m range, 1550nm wavelength) optimized for large-area aerial mapping and deep vegetation penetration. The R3 V2 is the versatile entry-level system—lowest cost, multi-platform capability, and perfect for getting started with professional LiDAR. Choose Ultra for massive sites; R3 Pro for higher density; R3 for best value.
