Modularity is a key feature of the RANGER-FLEX laser mapping product line.
These systems can be quickly reconfigured, with sensors added and/or removed, to allow for optimized utilization on a variety of vehicle types. Modularity also presents a challenge: How can a system calibration, which is a cornerstone of data accuracy, be preserved if laser scanners and cameras are routinely separated from each other and from the navigation system? The RANGER-FLEX has been engineered to specifically address this, and a series of datasets were collected to test the stability of its calibration.
