Final calibration of a prototype Laser Scanner system in a research lab before field testing begins. The sensor head assembly is housed in a tough case with a slide rail system and handles for user access. A high-density foam casing ensures the sensitive components are protected during transit. A portable tablet is used for hardware tests and data recording. The UI was inspired by DSLR camera LCD displays. Modelled in Blender, rendered in Cycles + photo textures in Photoshop.
