Artec Jet Scanner
From real scenes to digital twins in minutes
Artec Jet is a high-speed mobile LiDAR mapping system that combines SLAM-based positioning and AI-powered autonomy to capture sites, facilities & infrastructure, even in GPS-denied environments – in minutes rather than hours, with survey-grade accuracy.
Capture by hand, or mount to a backpack, robot, vehicle, or drone. Artec Jet offers multiple different deployment modes in a single compact, lightweight device. Choose the modality that best suits your application, whether it be open-air surveying or underground mapping, and ensure that on-site teams steer clear of hazardous, hard-to-reach areas.
