OverviewFreeScan UE Nova is a wireless 3D metrology scanner designed for large-scale capture with an expanded field of view, enabling efficient on-site measurement, inspection and reverse engineering of big parts and assemblies.
Key features- Extra-large scan coverage: FOV up to 2.6 × 2.2 m and maximum scan distance 2.6 m
- High-speed capture: 62/50 laser lines for rapid data acquisition (up to 5,714,000 points/s)
- Wireless operation with integrated communication modules and optional wired (fiber) connection
- Swappable hot‑swap batteries and on-board computing modules for extended field use
Flexible FOV and working ranges- Near Mode (300–800 mm): detailed capture in tight spaces
- Standard Mode (600–1500 mm): balanced speed and detail for general tasks
- Far Mode (1200–2600 mm): rapid coverage of very large objects and areas
Video Photogrammetry (VPG)Utilizes SHINING 3D’s patented video-based photogrammetry (VPG) without coded markers. Integrated calibration rod and real-time marker verification deliver volumetric accuracy of 0.072 + 0.012 mm/m for reliable multi-sensor registration.
Mobility and on-site productivity- Lightweight and portable design (approx. 1.6 kg) suited for field inspection and shop-floor use
- Hot-swappable batteries for uninterrupted operation during long projects
- Built-in computing enables on-board processing and faster workflows without a constant external PC
