• Is it important that the iMapper is perfectly horizontal during a scan?

  Achieving perfect levelness isn't always essential for precise measurements when using iMapper. A slight deviation, such as measuring 3 meters away with a 10 cm dip, introduces a minimal error—approximately 1.7 mm, which is often negligible. This principle applies variably across different distances, demonstrating that minor inaccuracies can be acceptable depending on the context.Some readers

• Known limitations of the iMapper

  Maximum range 7-25 m outdoors, depending on light conditions, angle of incidence and reflectivity of the surface finishing of the materials. 30 m indoors. Accuracy In depth, the measurement error is comparable to a good laser rangefinder: +/- 2 mm in depth for the iMapper Racer 2, slightly better for the Racer 3 (in laboratory conditions < 1mm). This value depends on the number of photons sent back to the sensor, and can fluctuate depending on the angle of incidence, lightFew readers
