## Technical notes

1. Eye-safe per IEC 60825-1:2007 and 2014.
2. Depending on final sensor specification and processing settings.
3. Local accuracy with fully constrained LiDAR SLAM. All accuracy statements are 1 sigma. Absolute accuracy depends on the environment.
4. Maximum true point cloud resolution the beam size supports. The actual resolution is configurable in IVION processing to balance quality against processing time.
5. Supports survey targets (for example, checkerboards, nails, and scribe marks) and natural features.
6. exFAT file system (compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux).
7. Operation is possible below 0°C (32°F) for a maximum of 20 minutes in calm conditions (no wind), following a 20-minute warm-up period above 0°C (32°F).
