Leica BLK360 G2 3D Imaging Laser Scanner

Next Generation Imaging Laser Scanner

The all-new Leica BLK360 G2 breaks open the possibilities of reality capture. With unprecedented, best-in-class scanning speed, the BLK360 makes you faster.

Leica Geosystems logo: when it has to be right.

The democratization of reality capture blazes forward with the new Leica BLK360. Still designed to help new-to-LiDAR users capture point clouds and unlock their potential, it does so seven times faster than the original. Other upgrades include higher quality images, better-looking point clouds, and location tracking that pre-aligns your scans using our patented VIS system. Whether conducting a survey or scouting a movie location, the new BLK360 puts serious scanning power in the palm of your hand.

A supercharged next-gen imaging laser scanner, the BLK360 captures a full scan with spherical images in only twenty seconds over five times faster than the BLK360 G1.

With fast and agile in-field workflows, along with live feedback on your mobile device, you can be absolutely sure you’ve captured everything you need, and even more. And VIS technology automatically combines your scans to speed up your workflow and help you make sure your datasets are complete.

REALITY CLOUD STUDIO is a powerful cloud application for reality capture data visualization, collaboration, and storage. It is the source for automated digital reality in the cloud.

FOR A LIMITED TIME, RCS is included with every Leica Geosystems BLK360 G2 Reality Capture Sensor free of charge.  All BLK sensors will be delivered with a 1TB Data Usage Subscription (1 year).   More information.

BLK360 FEATURES

Immersive HDR Imaging

The BLK360’s 4-camera system captures high dynamic range (HDR) spherical images and provides greater dynamic range for immersive photospheres and colorized point clouds.

Four 13-megapixel cameras capture the scene in high quality, and 5-bracket HDR imaging captures the details in challenging lighting conditions and environments.

VIS Scan Alignment System

Leica Geosystems’ exclusive Visual Inertial System (VIS) Technology, is now built into the new BLK360 to combine your scans automatically.

Each scan you capture is combined with your previous scan in the field. You’ll spend less time aligning data and more time creating valuable deliverables.

Ultra-fast Scanning

Building on the award-winning technology of the BLK360 G1, the new BLK360’s data collection is optimized to be faster than ever.

The enclosed LiDAR sensor in the new BLK360 captures point clouds at a rate of 680,000 points per second and completes a scan with spherical images in 20 seconds.

High-Speed Data Transfer

Enjoy real-time data synchronization between your devices with the BLK360’s onboard wireless connection, then transfer data with speed and stability via WiFI or its USB-C port.

Leica BLK360 G1 -vs- Leica BLK360 G2

What are the differenced between Gen1 and the new Gen2?

Black, cylindrical, air purifier with vents.
Two black 3D scanners with timers.

Both devices are small and light, with the BLK360 G1 measuring 165 x100mm and the new BLK360 155x80mm. Both weigh around a kilogram with the battery installed, with the G1 topping out at 1.1 kg and the new BLK360 weighing 850g.

The new BLK360 is about four times faster than the BLK360 G1, though it can be anywhere between three and six times faster, depending on scan settings. For instance, taking a complete spherical image and 3D point cloud with the BLK360 G1 takes a little over a minute, while the new BLK360 takes just 20 seconds.

BLK360_Rich_Imagery
blk360_scan_distance

One reason for this speediness is that the new BLK360’s upgraded laser can capture 680,000 points per second compared to 360,000 points per second for the G1.

HDR imagery is richer on the new BLK360 as well, with 5-bracket HDR imaging compared to the BLK360G1’s 3-bracket HDR.

The original BLK360 has a slightly larger maximum scan distance of 60 m than the new BLK360, which has a maximum range of 45 m.

Where the new BLK360 can really speed up workflows is its inclusion of Leica Geosystems’ Visual Inertial System (VIS) which enables the scanner to track its movements between setups and automatically pre-registers your data for import.  The BLK360 G1 lacks this feature, though you can still manually align your scans on a phone or tablet in the field using our FIELD 360 app to prepare them for import. Purchases of the BLK360 G1 still come with a year’s subscription to Leica Cyclone REGISTER 360 PLUS (BLK Edition).  The new BLK360 is compatible with all of this software and includes the new BLK Live app, which allows for remote control of the sensor and enables the exports of point cloud data to the non-proprietary e57 file format.

Heat differential
One notable feature of the original BLK360 is its thermal sensor. This could be a key feature for applications where needing to gather thermal data would be valuable, such as certain public safety scenarios.

The thermal sensor can also be used in environmental scanning applications, such as determining hot and cold spots in a given building for energy efficiency and improved HVAC performance.

Optimized for speed, the new BLK360 does not have this sensor, so if gathering thermal data is essential, the BLK360 G1 might be a better fit.

Pricing
While packed with added features in a more petite frame, the new BLK360 is also more expensive than its predecessor – about 20% more. For budget-conscious customers, the highly capable G1 represents a more frugal option.

Scanning frequency

Beyond budget, how often you plan on using your 3D scanner could make the difference between whether you should pick up an original BLK360 or the newer model.

“It comes down to return on investment,” Patri said. “People who scan every now and then – let’s say a single scan once a week or perhaps three times a month – won’t benefit as much from the additional speed of the new solution. It will be faster, but it may not justify the extra money.”

BLK360 data is highly valuable for so many uses—from AEC to VFX and VR—and you can easily transfer and work with it in your software ecosystem to create immersive and highly accurate deliverables and experiences.
