Recently, Hi-Target Navigation Technology Corporation launched the all-new V700S SLAM RTK System. Equipped with the Livox Mid-360 LiDAR sensor, this system supports omnidirectional scanning and enables seamless data collection on the move,delivering high-precision results even in areas with weak or no GNSS signal.

  

 

Accurate Surveying Even Without GNSS Signal

  

Traditional RTK devices rely on satellite signals. In typical scenarios where GNSS signals are blocked, such as underground parking lots, under overpasses, or in dense forests, these devices often fail or suffer from severely degraded accuracy, leading to workflow interruptions or rework.

  

The Hi-Target V700S SLAM RTK System integrates a high-precision RTK positioning module, the Livox Mid-360 LiDAR sensor, a high-precision inertial sensor, and a global shutter color camera. These sensors work together seamlessly, enhanced by intelligent algorithms. As a result, the system not only maintains RTK-level accuracy, but also delivers precise coordinate information even in environments with weak or no satellite signal.

  

 

More Flexible and Efficient Operations

  

It’s worth noting that the Mid-360 LiDAR sensor installed on the V700S plays a crucial role. Its 360° horizontal field of view ensures no blind spots, while its non-repetitive scanning pattern generates a complete point cloud even when the device is stationary. Additionally, the Mid-360 offers a detection range of 40 meters at 10% reflectivity, ensuring comprehensive point cloud collection within this distance.

  

With the support of the Mid-360 LiDAR sensor, the V700S SLAM RTK System delivers outstanding performance across a variety of environments. when operating outdoors, the high-precision RTK module delivers centimeter-level accuracy. In GNSS-denied areas, such as under bridges or eaves, the system automatically switches to laser-based positioning, ensuring uninterrupted data capture.

  

As a result, engineers no longer need to repeatedly search for signals during tasks such as engineering surveys. Data collection and stakeout become much more flexible and efficient.

  

  

In addition, the V700S SLAM RTK System continues to support all traditional RTK functions, such as CAD stakeout, surface stakeout, and earthwork calculation. It also offers SLAM capabilities, making it suitable for a wide range of engineering applications.

  

  

The launch of the V700S SLAM RTK System by Hi-Target marks not just a technological upgrade, but a fundamental transformation of engineering surveying practices. By making “no signal means no measurement” a thing of the past, it brings the industry more flexible, efficient, and reliable solutions. Looking ahead, as LiDAR RTK technology becomes more widespread, surveying and construction in complex environments will enter a new era of intelligence.
