Laser Profiler
RedZone Robotics Profiler3D
Profiler3D from RedZone Robotics is built on sensor fusion, integrating multiple technologies to capture a complete and accurate representation of large-diameter underground assets. LiDAR and structured light systems generate high-density geometric data, capturing millions of measurement points that define pipe shape and structure. This allows engineers to identify deformation, ovality and subtle changes that would be missed in traditional inspections. To address submerged conditions, sonar is integrated into the system. Acoustic pulses map the pipe below the waterline, capturing inverted conditions, sediment buildup and hidden defects. This ensures full cross-sectional coverage, eliminating one of the most common gaps in inspection data. HD video provides critical visual context, showing material conditions and environmental factors. Through photogrammetry, this visual data becomes measurable, enabling the creation of detailed 3D models and digital twins. 412-476-8980; www.redzone.com
