GeoCue unveils TV1 Lite and TV1 drone LiDAR systems

GeoCue is making high-precision drone LiDAR more affordable and accessible with the launch of two new survey-grade scanners: the TrueView 1 Lite (TV1 Lite) and TrueView 1 (TV1). These cutting-edge additions to the TrueView lineup are designed to help professionals of all levels harness the power of LiDAR without breaking the bank.

TV1 Lite: Serious LiDAR at an unbeatable price

For those looking to get into LiDAR mapping without a massive upfront investment, the TV1 Lite is a game-changer. Priced at $18,990, it comes with GeoCue’s TrueNav technology, a Hesai 32-channel laser scanner, and a FLIR 5MP Global Shutter Camera with a 90-degree field of view.

What makes the TV1 Lite stand out is its ease of use. It includes a full year of TV1 Lite Annual Processing — a service that covers everything from software updates to customer support, ensuring users can hit the ground running.

Frank Darmayan, CEO of GeoCue, sees this as a major step toward making LiDAR technology accessible to a broader audience: “The TV1 Lite makes cutting-edge LiDAR technology available for almost everyone. We’re committed to expanding professional LiDAR solutions that are not only advanced but also attainable. This is the ultimate starter solution for anyone looking to step into the world of precise mapping without the high cost.”

TV1: The flexible, customizable LiDAR solution

For professionals looking for more power and customization, the TrueView 1 (TV1) offers multiple camera options — 26 MP, 45 MP, or 61 MP — allowing users to build the perfect system for their needs. It also features trajectory correction options that eliminate errors caused by base stations, ensuring pinpoint accuracy in mapping projects.

Beyond hardware, the TV1 comes with LP360 Drone software for easy data processing and continuous maintenance support, making it a well-rounded solution for serious LiDAR professionals.

Vivien Heriard Dubreuil, CEO of GeoCue’s parent company mdGroup, emphasizes how these new options strengthen GeoCue’s position in the market: “The TrueView 1 affords you the flexibility to create the system best suited for your work. By adding these new options to our product line, we are expanding our LiDAR footprint and
demonstrating that TrueView systems offer a complete solution, from hardware to software, including data collection and deliverable creation.”

Designed and assembled in Huntsville, Alabama, both the TV1 Lite and TV1 come with unmatched local support and training, ensuring users can get the most out of their LiDAR investment. And to make it even easier for businesses to adopt drone LiDAR, GeoCue is launching TrueFinancing, which allows professionals to get started with the TV1 Lite for just $8,990 initial down payment and pay the rest in manageable monthly installments.
