The RIEGL VUX-120²³ is a lightweight and versatile airborne laser scanner offering a wide field of view of 100 degrees and an extremely high pulse repetition rate of up to 2.4 MHz. Thus, it is perfectly suited for high-point density corridor mapping applications.

The measuring beam of the RIEGL VUX-120²³ is consecutively emitted in three different directions: it alternates from strictly nadir to  +10 degrees forward, and to -10 degrees backward. This allows data acquisition with unrivaled completeness in data capture, especially in challenging environments with vertical surfaces and narrow canyons.

The scanner provides an internal data storage capacity of 2 TByte and a removable CFast card and is equipped with interfaces for integration of an external IMU/GNSS system. Additionally, interfaces for up to two optional external cameras are available.

The sophisticated design of the RIEGL VUX-120²³ allows smooth integration on UAS/UAV/RPAS, small manned airplanes (like gyro-copters), but also on helicopters. It is offered both, as a stand-alone  UAV LiDAR sensor and also in various fully integrated UAV-based laser scanning system configurations with appropriate IMU/GNSS system and optional cameras. This allows the scanner to perfectly meet all the specific requirements of the customer's applications.
