Cost-Effective 3D Field Data Collection from a Handheld Laser
TLC 3D Cap is an easy-to-use field data collection solution that transforms a handheld laser rangefinder into a powerful 3D measurement system. Designed for surveyors, engineers, and field professionals, 3D Cap makes it easy to capture accurate spatial data, including inaccessible or hard-to-reach points, without the cost of traditional scanning equipment.
Pair a compatible Bluetooth laser rangefinder with a Windows or Android device, start a survey, and capture points in full 3D. Add a known station coordinate to georeference the survey and produce field-ready 3D data for downstream workflows.
Simple Field-to-Data Workflow
A streamlined four-step process gets you from setup to georeferenced 3D data quickly.
- Pair your Bluetooth laser rangefinder with your Windows or Android device
- Start a new survey within 3D Cap
- Capture points of interest, including inaccessible or hard-to-reach targets
- Add a known station coordinate to georeference your dataset
3D Data Collection
Record accurate 3D coordinates in the field using a handheld laser rangefinder.
- Automatically records horizontal angle, vertical angle, and distance
- Captures full 3D coordinates with each laser shot
- Designed for inaccessible and hard-to-reach points
- Fast, lightweight workflow with minimal setup
Georeferencing
Tie collected field data to real-world coordinates for use in downstream surveying and engineering workflows.
- Add a known station coordinate to georeference the survey
- Transform collected points into a georeferenced 3D dataset
- Compatible with standard field-to-finish workflows
Windows and Android Support
3D Cap runs on devices your team already uses, providing flexibility between desktop and mobile field workflows.
- Compatible with Windows desktops and laptops
- Compatible with Android tablets and smartphones
- Bluetooth laser pairing supported on both platforms
