Key Features


Agile Reality Capture

Equipped with a 32-layer LiDAR sensor and industry-trusted SLAM software, the handheld NavVis MLX captures exceptional point cloud data with ease. Its Visual Odometry (VO) feature adds to the precision, allowing for top-notch scans in even the most complex environments. The device features four cameras for high-resolution imaging, covering 270º when worn and 360º when lifted overhead.

Live Scanning Feedback

Monitor your scanning in real time with an intuitive touchscreen interface. This built-in display helps ensure full coverage as you move, minimizing the chance of missed areas during the scanning process.

Handheld Redefined

NavVis MLX stands out as a compact, ergonomically designed handheld device, built for optimal comfort and functionality. The system includes a supporting harness that lets users scan while walking, providing greater freedom of movement. Its flat-sided design allows for stable placement on surfaces when not in use, while the easy-grip handle enables effortless navigation through confined spaces.

Limitless Mobility

Designed for ease of transport, NavVis MLX can be easily carried in a custom backpack or stored in a durable, hard-shelled case for longer travel. Whether by rail, air, or foot, its compact size makes it easy to move between sites, and the system can even be checked in as hand luggage on flights, offering true portability for professionals on the go.

Geo-Registration and Compatibility

NavVis MLX integrates seamlessly with tools like Total Stations and GNSS rovers, making it a valuable asset for geo-registration and alignment of datasets with both local and global coordinates. This feature enhances workflow efficiency, particularly in large-scale AEC or surveying projects.
