LASER SCANNING TUTORIAL SERIES
If you’re new to laser scanning or new to Leica BLK scanners, we’ve got a helpful series of tutorial videos by Andy Fontana, our Leica BLK Technical Specialist, to get you up and running.
Andy will introduce you to each scanner and how to use them, how to register scans in Leica software, and how to make simple floorplans and models in AutoCAD® and Revit®.
Scanners
Andy introduces the BLK360 imaging laser scanner. He also covers the basics of how laser scanning technology works, the basics of operating the BLK360, and explains what you can expect from point clouds.
These videos were written about the BLK360 G1. To learn about the new, next generation BLK360 and how it differs from the G1, check out this interview with Gian-Phillipe Patri, our BLK360 Product Manager.
Andy introduces the BLK2GO, our handheld imaging laser scanner. Learn how mobile laser scanning works, the basics of operating the BLK2GO, and individual features and components of the BLK2GO.
