The RANGER-U160 adds enhanced range and density capabilities to an already unrivaled mapping system. Featuring the Riegl VUX-16023 with a unique forward- and rear-looking field of view, it is designed to minimize laser shadowing and deliver a high level of detail on vertical surfaces. With pulse rates up to 2400 kHz and the flexibility to be carried by a variety of aircraft, the RANGER-U160 is a highly versatile system suitable for mapping at multiple scales to meet your specific project objectives. It is especially ideal for corridor mapping applications such as utility, rail, and pipeline inspection.

Features:
- Exceptional data density with measurement rates up to
2,000,000/s - 3 facet polygon mirror with -10° back, 0° nadir, and +10°
forward for improved detail on vertical structures and surfaces - Easily mountable to unmanned platforms (UAVs) and to
helicopters, gyrocopters, and other small piloted aircrafts - 100° lateral field of view for single pass corridor coverage
The RANGER-U160 in aerial configuration easily integrates on the IF1200 heavy lift mutli-rotor drones.

(1) Rounded values.
(2) Setting of intermediate PRR values possible.
(3) Typical values for average conditions. Maximum range is specifi ed for fl at targets with size in excess of the laser beam diameter, perpendicular angle of incidence, and for atmospheric visibility of 23 km. In bright sunlight, the max range is shorter than under overcast sky.
(4) Ambiguity to be resolved by post-processing.
(5) Flat terrain assumed, scan angle +/- 45°.
(6) If more than one target is hit, the total laser transmitter power is split and, accordingly, the achievable range is reduced.
