Toronto, Ontario, September 19, 2024 – Teledyne Geospatial and Inertial Labs are excited to announce the launch of EchoONE, a collaborative innovation that combines Teledyne’s lidar and camera technology, with the Remote Sensing Payload Instrument (RESEPI), leveraging Inertial Labs’ IMU and INS technology. Combining NDAA-compliant data security, lightweight design, and real-time operation to deliver long range, engineering-grade 3D point clouds, EchoONE is designed to enhance reliability and return on investment for sensor operators in land surveying, electric utility vegetation management and asset modeling, and transportation and infrastructure projects.

EchoONE breaks barriers that previously forced customers to choose between product features:

• NDAA compliant and affordable: Achieve return on investment and ensure the integrity and confidentiality of data through compliance with stringent NDAA requirements.
• Long-range and lightweight: EchoONE weighs just 1.2 kg and can be operated from UAVs such as the Freefly Astro, Inspired Flight IF800 and DJI M300/M350, while collecting engineer-grade data reliably at a regulatory limit of 120 m / 400 ft agl.
• Accuracy and Speed: Full undecimated georeferenced point clouds generated in real-time allowing infield verification combined with rapid post-processing through RESEPI’s “one-click” PC-Master Pro post-processing solution.

“We are excited to introduce EchoONE to the market,” said Mark Treiber, Product Manager at Teledyne Geospatial. “This collaboration with Inertial Labs combines our mutual expertise to provide a powerful tool that meets the evolving needs of our customers in various industries.”

“Inertial Labs is proud to partner with Teledyne Geospatial on this innovative product,” added Jamie Marraccini, CEO at Inertial Labs. “EchoONE represents a significant advancement in airborne laser scanning technology, offering unmatched performance and security.”

Find out more about EchoONE at INTERGEO 2024, from September 24-26, Stuttgart, Germany, at the Teledyne Geospatial booth located in Hall 1 Booth D1.002 and at Inertial Labs’ booth in Hall 3 Booth C3.013.

EchoONE is now available for order from Teledyne Geospatial, Inertial Labs, and their distribution partners. For more information, please visit https://www.teledyneoptech.com/ or https://lidarpayload.com/.
