Enhance Image Quality with Vexcel's UltraCam Osprey 4.1 The next genera on UltraCam Osprey 4.1 is Vexcel's highly versa le large-format aerial camera. The UltraCam Osprey simultaneously collects photogrammetry grade nadir images (PAN, RGB and NIR) and oblique images (RGB) in four direc ons. Enabling unprece- dented flight collec on efficiency at superior radiometric and geometric quality, the UltraCam Osprey 4.1 sets a new standard in urban mapping and 3D city modeling. As a result of a combina on of leading customized lens systems, next genera on Key Specifica ons ➝ 20,544 x 14,016 pixels PAN image size (nadir) ➝ 14,176 x 10,592 pixels color image size (oblique) ➝ CMOS imaging sensors Key Features ➝ Cu ng-edge depth- sensing capabili es ➝ Detailed understanding of a scene ➝ Stunning AR experience Unveiled: New iPad Pro with Breakthrough LiDAR Scanner Apple has announced its most advanced iPad Pro, which will be powered by a breakthrough LiDAR Scanner that delivers cu ng-edge depth-sensing capabili es. The LiDAR Scanner, along with pro cameras, mo on sensors, pro performance, pro audio, powerful apps and a Liquid Re na display will help the device maintain its lead as the world's best device for augmented reality (AR). Apple's latest innova on is a first in the mobile industry. The new depth frameworks in iPadOS combine depth points measured by the LiDAR Scanner, data from both cameras and mo on sensors, and is enhanced by computer vision algorithms on the A12Z Bionic for a more detailed understanding of a scene. According to experts, the LiDAR Scanner and the AR experiences are suited to work best in indoor and confined environments and for short travel distances (5 meters). image sensors with custom electronics, and a best-in-class image processing pipeline, the UltraCam Osprey 4.1 delivers imagery of unprecedented quality in terms of detail resolu on, clarity and dynamic range. The system pushes urban flight produc vity to new levels, collec ng 1.1 Gigapixels every 0.7 seconds. Its new and innova ve Adap ve Mo on Compensa on (AMC) method compensates mul -direc onal mo on inducted image blur and ground sampling distance varia ons in oblique images. Besides a new numbering format — the UltraCam Osprey 4.1 is a 4 th genera on camera in its first version — this new genera on also introduces several design updates to increase the overall usability and user-friendliness. Product Features ➝ New web user interface ➝ Trimble internal camera support ➝ Reset password feature ➝ Last known posi on feature Boost for Monitoring Professionals: Trimble's Se op M1 Firmware v3.0 Trimble has recently announced the release of its Se op M1 firmware v3.0, which enables monitoring profes- sionals to experience an even more user-friendly commu- nica on device, while also benefi ng from enhanced remote management of total sta ons in real- me. When used with Trimble 4D Control (T4D) so ware, the Se op M1 enhances the opera on of a Trimble total sta on, combining the func onality of a field computer, device server, router and remote switch — all into one device. This streamlines the number of components needed in the field for buildings, mines, dams, bridges and other structural moni- toring applica ons. www.geospatialworld.net | May-June 2020 8 PRODUCT WATCH
