RedTail LiDAR Systems is delivering the RTL-450 LiDAR, a microelectromechanical-systems (MEMS) mirror-based LiDAR system. The device incorporates a lightweight MEMS mirror along with a navigation system to generate accurate point cloud data that's ideal for aerial surveying missions. The LiDAR system weighs just over 4 pounds and can work independently of the drone platform. The RTL-450 has been integrated with the FLIR SkyRaider, Freefly Alta-8, 4D-X6, DJI Matrice 300, and DJI Matrice 600 drones.
