The compact, easy-to-transport Trimble X7 3D scanner is designed for use in construction, surveying and forensics. It delivers point clouds from millions of measurements, which are used as the basis for drawings of the as-built situation and construction projects. The automatic registration allows users to check the scans immediately on site. An additional key to high efficiency is the device’s consistently high data quality due to automatic self-calibration and the fast provision of data. The operation of the scanner is intuitive and adapted to common workflow situations.
