The sub-1 kg handheld SLAM LiDAR: centimetre-level colourised point clouds and 3DGS capture from the lightest scanner in the Lixel range.
At roughly 1 kg with battery, the K1 is the easiest Lixel device to carry, learn, and operate: single-operator capture with one-button operation and a low learning curve.
Dual 48 MP panoramic cameras and a 360° LiDAR give full spherical coverage: colourised point clouds with visual context in every direction, captured in a single walk.
K1 data flows through the same LixelGO, LixelStudio, and Lixel CyberColor pipeline as the K2: point clouds for CAD/BIM and photorealistic 3DGS scenes from one capture.
What renters capture with the K1, and where each workflow is covered in more depth across the site.
Walk floors, rooms, and corridors to record existing conditions quickly.
As-built documentationBasements, plant rooms, tunnels, and underground spaces where satellites can't reach.
Handheld reality captureA forgiving first scanner for teams building handheld SLAM experience.
OnboardingInterior point clouds your BIM team can model against for smaller buildings.
Scan-to-BIMDigitise apartments, retail units, and venues for planning and walkthroughs.
Real estate & venuesArchive culturally significant interiors with full panoramic colour context.
Urban planning & heritageInputs for photorealistic, browser-viewable Gaussian Splatting scenes.
Gaussian SplattingRecord spaces before design or demolition work begins.
Interiors & renovationLaser, visual, and IMU fusion keeps tracking stable in dark corridors, feature-sparse rooms, and GPS-denied spaces.
Review the model live in the LixelGO app during capture: spot gaps and fill them before leaving site.
An add-on RTK module enables georeferenced output where absolute positioning is required.
Aluminium body, IP54 rating, and −20 °C to 50 °C operating range, built for real site conditions.
Specifications and outputs depend on device configuration, software workflow, site conditions, and processing requirements. Confirm project requirements before any arrangement.

Lighter, compact handheld SLAM scanner for smaller interior jobs.
Flagship handheld SLAM scanner with built-in RTK, Volumet's primary rental device.
Choose the K1 when weight, simplicity, and indoor capture are the priorities. Choose the K2 when your site mixes indoor and outdoor capture, you need georeferenced point clouds without an add-on module, or you plan to test point cloud, mesh, and 3DGS outputs from one device. Spec bars describe typical workflow character, not lab benchmarks.
Built for teams that need short-term access to the scanner rather than a full scanning service. Share your dates, site type, and intended outputs and we will advise whether the K1 or a K2 rental fits better.
