Engineering PR Tests the XGRIDS Lixel L2 Pro

In the world of underground mining, precision and speed in data capture are not just an advantage; they are a necessity. Recently, we had the pleasure of joining our friends at Engineering PR in the field to witness one of the most disruptive technologies of recent times in action: the XGRIDS Lixel L2 Pro.

In this new video, Pablo Reyes, CEO of Engineering PR, shares his experience using this mobile scanning system in underground operations, highlighting how data density is transforming their modeling processes.


Innovation in Motion: MULTI-SLAM Technology

The Lixel L2 Pro is not a conventional scanner. Its ability to perform flexible, on-the-move scans is based on MULTI-SLAM technology, which intelligently integrates:

  • High-resolution LiDAR.
  • Visual SLAM and IMU.
  • Artificial Intelligence powered by XGRIDS.

This combination allows for capturing point clouds of astonishing density while the operator moves through the work area, eliminating dead time for stationing and ensuring complete coverage of the environment.

 


From Field to Digital Model in Record Time

What is the purpose of such high point density? Pablo Reyes explains it clearly from the work front. The ability to generate ultra-detailed point clouds allows engineering teams to:

  1. Generate 3D Solids: Facilitating precise volumetric calculations of advances and cavities.
  2. Estimate Planes: Accurate geometric modeling of surfaces.
  3. Vectorize the Structural Model: One of the critical advantages, allowing for the identification of geological structures with unprecedented terrain representation.

"With the level of detail of the point cloud, we will also be able to estimate planes, model the planes, and vectorize the structural model. This is one of the main advantages that this density gives us." > — Pablo Reyes, CEO of Engineering PR.

 

More Reliable Decision Making

The implementation of technology such as the XGRIDS Lixel L2 Pro not only optimizes capture times but also elevates the quality of the final deliverable. By having a faithful digital copy of the mine, decision-making becomes more precise, secure, and reliable.

At GEOCOM, we are proud to be solution providers that drive the success of companies like Engineering PR, taking Chilean engineering to the next level of digitalization.
