Leica Geosystems allows real-time, in-picture 3D measurement with the BLK3D

Leica Geosystems, part of global leader in digital solutions Hexagon AB, has introduced another industry-first solution in its popular BLK line. Following the huge success of the BLK360, Leica Geosystems’ vision was to develop a tool which creates a perfect fusion of robustness, simplicity, ergonomic and visually appealing design.

The result is the new Leica BLK3D. A ground-breaking measurement innovation, setting new technological standards. Its integrated stereo measurement camera system generates images which allow for instant in-picture measurements with professional grade accuracy.

Every image captured by the BLK3D is a precise 3D record. Its edge computing capabilities eliminate the need for network connections and / or cloud services, ensuring architects, building engineers, real-estate agents, public safety officers and other professionals can make faster decisions within their daily workflow. It’s equipped with a wide variety of advanced technical features designed to streamline daily workflows and increase productivity.

“The BLK3D is the latest addition to our award-winning BLK series,” says Ola Rollén, Hexagon President and CEO. “The ability to capture, visualise, and index precise 3D measurement information directly from a 2D image raises the bar, setting new expectations for professionals looking for faster, more accurate ways to get the measurements they need. Not only that, it’s so easy to operate virtually anyone can use it.”

With the expanded functionality of the desktop software, it’s possible to create new projects and CAD-ready 3D models from measurable images. The BLK3D connects seamlessly to a laptop or desktop computer – via Wi-Fi or USB cable. Data is automatically synced and measurable images can be accessed, processed, and organised from the convenience of the desktop application.

The Leica BLK3D represents a modern and compact measuring system which facilitates the democratisation of reality capture – it simplifies data capture and makes exclusive technologies available to a wide variety of professionals.
