The company highlighted that the device achieved a verified 5\u202fmm relative accuracy, a figure confirmed through a documented test that compared the scanner\u2019s output against measured ground\u2011truth data.<\/p>\n<h2>Technical Overview<\/h2>\n<p>The Lixel L3 integrates several advanced components into a single, portable unit. It combines a high\u2011precision LiDAR sensor with a true\u2011color vision system, an integrated Real\u2011Time Kinematic (RTK) module for positioning, and a built\u2011in 4.3\u2011inch display that provides operators with real\u2011time feedback on scan status, trajectory, and coverage. By unifying geometry capture, color imaging, positioning data, and immediate delivery, the system enables a streamlined workflow that can be completed on\u2011site without the need for external processing equipment. According to XGRIDS, a single L3 unit can cover roughly 100 square meters in ten minutes, producing both high\u2011accuracy geometric data and photorealistic 3D models suitable for downstream applications.<\/p>\n<h2>Accuracy Validation<\/h2>\n<p>The company emphasized two key accuracy metrics for the L3. Relative accuracy\u2014how consistently the scanner can reproduce distances between points within a single session\u2014was measured at 5\u202fmm. Absolute accuracy, which reflects the device\u2019s alignment with an external reference frame, was reported at approximately 2.5\u202fcm in real\u2011time. XGRIDS attributes this performance to an integrated Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) system that maintains positional stability throughout a scan, as well as vision\u2011aided localization and leveling optimization that mitigate drift over longer capture periods. Sunny Liao, XGRIDS\u2019 Director of International Sales and Marketing, noted that \u201c5\u202fmm relative accuracy only matters if it holds up in the field and the data can go straight into BIM. Customers can capture, process and export locally and the data is ready for the workflow.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Photorealistic Spatial Capture<\/h2>\n<p>Beyond precise geometry, the Lixel L3 is equipped with a 1\/1.3\u2011inch CMOS sensor capable of 4K HDR imaging. This high\u2011resolution camera records true\u2011color information that, when merged with LiDAR data, yields a point cloud enriched with realistic surface detail. From a single pass, the scanner can generate a true\u2011color point cloud, a detailed mesh, and a photorealistic 3DGS (3\u2011D Geospatial) model. The emergence of 3DGS as a mainstream production format has been underscored by recent software updates: Autodesk announced native support for 3DGS in its 3ds Max platform, while Trimble incorporated the format into SketchUp. XGRIDS\u2019 proprietary LCC2 file format is among the early 3DGS formats recognized by these established tools, facilitating direct import of photorealistic assets into architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) pipelines, as well as film, entertainment, and virtual production workflows.<\/p>\n<p>Field operatives also benefit from design choices aimed at rugged, on\u2011site use. The L3\u2019s display provides immediate visual cues about scan completeness, and the system\u2019s map\u2011fusion capability can align multiple passes without requiring pre\u2011placed control points. Privacy safeguards are built in, allowing the software to automatically blur identifiable features such as faces and license plates, thereby addressing data\u2011protection concerns in public\u2011space deployments.<\/p>\n<p>In positioning the Lixel L3 within the broader market, XGRIDS highlighted the growing importance of spatial data as a foundational layer for digital experiences. As 3DGS gains traction across industries, the company argues that its scanner offers a bridge between physical environments and their digital twins, delivering both the metric precision needed for building information modeling (BIM) and the visual fidelity required for immersive media. By coupling validated 5\u202fmm relative accuracy with rapid, photorealistic capture, XGRIDS aims to set a new benchmark for how complex sites are digitized and repurposed in downstream applications.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>XGRIDS unveiled the Lixel L3 scanner at INTERGEO 2026, delivering validated 5\u202fmm relative accuracy and rapid 3D capture for BIM and virtual production.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":2021,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[299],"tags":[2118,2117,2119,2116,2115],"class_list":["post-2020","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-3dgs","tag-bim","tag-intergeo-2026","tag-lidar","tag-spatial-scanning","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsraise.com\/in\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2020","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsraise.com\/in\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsraise.com\/in\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsraise.com\/in\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsraise.com\/in\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2020"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/newsraise.com\/in\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2020\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsraise.com\/in\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2021"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsraise.com\/in\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2020"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsraise.com\/in\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2020"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsraise.com\/in\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2020"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
