Topcon Positioning Systems has introduced the CR-S1, a handheld scanning system that combines LiDAR, panoramic cameras, visual SLAM cameras, and a GNSS antenna in a single device.

The CR-S1 utilizes Topcon’s Collage mass-data software ecosystem central to a connected workflow.

The CR-S1 expands the company’s Capture Reality portfolio as a higher‑performance option alongside the CR‑S2. It offers increased point‑cloud density, extended scanning range, and upgraded panoramic imaging. The system is primarily intended for surveying and construction and is also well-suited for applications such as land surveying, tunnel surveying and modeling, forestry analysis, mining operations, utility mapping, and power line inspection.

“Customers are looking for flexibility and efficient workflows, and our scanning portfolio and software are designed to support these needs through simplified processes, open integrations and mixed‑fleet compatibility,” said Ron Oberlander, head of the Topcon Geomatics Platform. “With Collage serving as the central data hub supporting inputs from multiple sensors, users can obtain accurate, detailed information for decision‑making.”

Software support includes MAGNET Flow for Android and iOS devices, MAGNET Bridge for SLAM data desktop processing, and Collage Web.
