Solution presentation

The new YellowScan Explorer can be mounted on a light manned aircraft or switched to different types of UAV platforms.
The YellowScan Explorer is the first LiDAR that can be mounted on a light manned aircraft or helicopter and be switched to a UAV platform like the DJI M300. This versality allows the end user to tackle a wide range of projects with the proven ease-of-use of YellowScan’s UAV LiDAR solutions.

HMI
The Human-Machine Interface was thought out to be simple and efficient
With LEDs that indicate the LiDAR system’s status and its single button operation. As usual, we followed the “Just Press the Yellow Button” philosophy.
Data Storage
Data storage is not an issue
You don’t need to connect to your LiDAR system to gather data. Just remove the USB stick from the system and go to your computer. As you receive two USBs, this helps you land and take-off again straight away thanks to the second USB stick.
Survey productivity matters to us! With one USB stick you can store LiDAR data from a 6 hour-survey.
Embedded
battery
You‘ve got the power!
Air Flow
No overheating LiDAR system!
We have optimized the temperature management with four suction grids (air flow management) combined with an innovative heat management inside for a better aeration of the system. You can operate the Explorer between -20°C/-4°F and +40°C/104°F.
A set of 2 worldwide certified batteries is shipped with the YellowScan Explorer.
They are high-performance batteries that can easily be swapped in the field for increased productivity.
