Engineering-grade accuracy. Real-time, true-to-life capture

Reliable data, captured cleanly and ready to use

Lixel K2 runs a more capable multi-SLAM real-time spatial perception system and features a multi-camera array to capture every detail of the scene.

Capture measurement-ready data with up to 1 cm accuracy, ensuring reliable dimensions for walls, openings, and structural elements.

K2 produces thin, clean point clouds (~1 cm thickness) with sharp geometry — reducing noise and significantly speeding up post-processing workflows.

Generate dense, colour-rich point clouds in real time, ready for immediate measurement, validation, and sharing.

With dependable performance across challenging environments — including low light and complex surfaces — K2 delivers consistent, high-quality results, including ready-to-use outputs, with no post-processing required.

End-to-End Spatial Intelligence Ecosystem

From scan to output

K2 connects seamlessly into a complete workflow:

  • LixelGo: Companion app for mobile workflow control, real-time capture preview, and at-a-glance device status.

  • LixelStudio: Upgraded for higher-quality data output. Every detail refined, from true-to-life colour to sharper point clouds.

  • Lixel CyberColor: Proprietary open-source 3DGS technology. Faster loading, smoother navigation, lighter sizes.

From capture to delivery, K2 enables a fully integrated, scan-to-output workflow that fits into your operations, including Scan-to-BIM, simulation, embodied AI, and digital twins.

LixelStudio 4.0. Defining the K2 standard

Cleaner data. Faster processing. Engineering-grade results.

LixelStudio 4.0 sets the benchmark for engineering-grade point clouds — and K2 is built to meet it.

Launched alongside K2 (and compatible with XGRIDS L2 Pro and K1 scanners running firmware version 2.4.1 and above), it delivers targeted upgrades to improve data quality and processing efficiency:

  • More stable alignment → straighter structures, reduced drift.

  • Cleaner point clouds → less noise, fewer artefacts.

  • Improved colour accuracy → consistent results in challenging conditions.

  • Stronger mesh reconstruction → fewer gaps, smoother surfaces.

  • Faster processing pipeline → less post-processing, quicker turnaround.

The result: reliable, high-quality outputs — faster.

Next-generation 3D capture with 3DGS

Full 3DGS pipeline: capture, generate, edit, deploy

Use Lixel K2 for 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS), creating immersive, high-fidelity spatial models.

This delivers:

  • Richer visual detail and realism, and accurate geometry.

  • Smaller, more efficient file sizes - down to 8% of original .ply file size.

  • Smooth performance across devices, including mobile and VR.

  • Open source.

  • Multi-source data fusion: Map Fusion, Aerial Reconstruction, and Aerial-ground Map Fusion combining ground-scan and drone data.

Through Lixel CyberColor (available separately), your data becomes more than a point cloud — it becomes a fully explorable digital environment.

Built for real-world applications

K2: Multi-use scenarios

K2 is designed to support a wide range of industries where accurate, efficient spatial data is critical:

  • Surveying & AEC: Capture precise site data for Scan-to-BIM, planning, and as-built documentation.

  • Engineering & Construction: Quickly measure, validate, and document environments with reliable, measurement-grade accuracy.

  • Public Safety & Inspection: Digitise scenes and assets for analysis, training, and operational planning.

  • Heritage & Preservation: Record detailed, true-to-life environments for conservation and digital archiving.

  • Digital Twins & Visualisation: Create immersive, high-fidelity environments for simulation, collaboration, and decision-making.
