The Leica BLK3D is a real-time, in-picture 3D photogrammetry camera and measurement solution.
Take a picture and instantly have access to measurable data embedded in the image.
Edge computing capabilities eliminate the need for network connections and cloud services.
Professionals can make faster decisions within their daily workflows with a BLK3D.
The BLK3D captures images and places precise measurements at your fingertips. Share images and measurements in multiple formats.
The BLK3D creates images that contain precise three-dimensional measurements.
Un-matched combination of a calibrated stereo-camera, advanced algorithms and real-time edge computing fused with leading Electronic Distance Measurement (EDM) technology.
Measure in your image – on the handheld imager, on the desktop, on-site or in the office.
Create floorplans and import existing ones. Add measurable images. Document construction progress with multiple images over time.
Capture critical moments throughout the life of a building.
Auto-Snapping uses computer vision technologies to select the right points for your measurements.
Store your measurable images on the device and on desktop. Organize your projects by tagging measurable images with searchable keywords for easy recall and share them in multiple formats.
