Detailed Underwater Inspection
The original 2G Robotics Underwater Laser Scanner is designed for very high detailed underwater inspection and measurements capable of providing dimensions of less than 1mm. It is ideal for capturing high-detail measurements of areas spanning 10cm to 1m and can be easily deployed by ROV or Diver.

Operation
Once positioned in front of any feature, the ULS-100 can be easily operated using the 2G Robotics ULScan Soft CAD package to collect and process the underwater point cloud data. Multiple adjacent scans can be captured and merged to create a complete larger scan. Measurements can be taken directly from the point clouds, and the point clouds can be exported for archive purposes and compared with future scans to assess changes to any structure.
