Ashley Cox, COO of Nextcore, said “We’ve been listening to our customers, reallytrying to gauge their needs rather than build as many different systems as possible.
We knew our custom-built software was really welcomed by the industry and weneeded to build a system that was more accurate, powerful and lightweight thananything we’ve built before.
All of our development work is conducted in Australia, and our LiDAR business is built around a trusted and secure relationship with our customers so it was really important to us that the Lumos series continued to provide that level of trust whilst we expand our market share with this important product.”
Pre-orders are now open for the Lumos with deliveries of units beginning in December.
