By bringing this affordable and scalable lidar solution to the skies, use cases will extend well beyond the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry and open new ways for public safety professionals, utility inspectors, and more to digitize their operations with the power of drone and lidar technology.” It features long-distance detection range up to 460 meters, high-density point clouds and supports up to three returns.

“Livox’s new 498 gram lightweight Avia lidar sensor is compact, capable and able to be attached directly to the DJI Matrice 200 and Matrice 300 series drones to enable highly accurate 3D aerial mapping. “DJI has been investing directly in lidar technology through its open innovation program that incubated Livox Technology Company,” says DJI. The DJI drone LiDAR program has been working towards making LiDAR more accessible – and today, they introduced Livox and Avia. “We are increasingly interested in bringing more accessible and affordable LiDAR to the skies,” says Menon.

“The challenges of LiDAR have always been in the category of production,” he notes – a highly functioning, lightweight and inexpensive LiDAR appropriate for drone use has been hard to find. “LiDAR is an important piece to the puzzle of accurate models,” said Arjun Menon, DJI’s Engineering Manager, at this morning’s AirWorks keynote.
