Precision Mapping

Produce dense survey grade point clouds with the Advanced SLAM (Simultaneous localization and mapping) algorithm. Improve workflow efficiencies with automated ground control feature in the Emesent software.

Built for Harsh Environments

IP65-rated, lightweight, and portable. Designed to operate in underground, surface, and industrial conditions.

Access the Inaccessible

Gain insight to the previously inaccessible environment with Hovermap’s advanced autonomy capabilities. Navigate beyond the lie of sight with omnidirectional LiDAR based collision avoidance, guided exploration, and smart return-to- home allows mapping even in GPs denied environments.

Uniquely Versatile

Deploy across multiple platforms:
– Drone enabled (ST-X)
– Handheld or backpack (GX1)
– Vehicle-mounted or pole-mounted systems

Mapping Autonomy (Hovermap ST-X)

Autonomy Level 0 (AL0):

Offers fast and accurate, high-resolution SLAM based mobile mapping where drone autonomy is not required.

Pilot Assist: Autonomy Level 1 (AL1):

Assisted line of sight navigation in GPS denied environment. Features 360⁰ collision avoidance that shields the drone from obstacles.

Autonomous Waypoints: Autonomy level 2 (AL2):

Offers beyond visual line-of-sight (BVLOS) flight through smart waypoints and Guided exploration. Autonomous navigation and mapping with Tap-to-fly feature. Hovermap streams live point clouds.
