About NavVis
NavVis separates reality capture into hardware, processing and access layers. The LX-Series includes wearable and handheld laser-scanning systems that combine lidar, panoramic imaging and proprietary SLAM to collect large indoor and outdoor sites while an operator walks through them, avoiding the station-by-station setup required by static scanners.
Captured data is processed, georegistered and aligned into point clouds and panoramic imagery, then published through NavVis IVION as a browser-based spatial environment. Factory, construction and surveying teams can measure spaces, compare site conditions, attach information and share a common digital representation with remote users. NavVis also provides control points, survey workflows, integrations and enterprise services so repeated scans can support construction progress, factory planning, asset documentation and ongoing digital-twin operation.
