PENTAX's surveying equipment manufacturer has launched measurement and point cloud data processing services, obtaining realistic 3D color point clouds using high-density 3D measuring instruments.

Real-time registration and ultra-lightweight: Enables the acquisition of clear and realistic 3D color point cloud data.

The "Z+F IMAGER 5016" is a high-precision, lightweight ground-based 3D laser scanner that can perform scanning and registration simultaneously using a phase difference method. While scanning, it allows for compositing, colorization, and noise processing on a tablet PC. This reduces working time in the office and prevents measurement omissions on-site. It contributes to the efficiency of operations, providing a stress-free waiting time. The measurement range is from 30 cm to 360 m. The 5016A scans at a high speed of 2.18 million points per second, while the 5016 scans at 1.1 million points per second, both equipped with a high-speed Wi-Fi antenna. It offers a measurement error of less than 1 mm (at 50 m) and low range noise, all while being easy to handle with a body weight of 6.5 kg. 【Features】 - Equipped with an LED light, allowing measurements in dark places such as tunnels and manholes without external lighting. - Built-in high-speed Wi-Fi antenna. - Capable of measuring a horizontal range of 360° and a vertical range of 320° in a single scan. - Built-in HDR camera with adjustable white balance. - Safe laser class 1 (the lowest level of danger), making it safe for use in public places. - Tablet operation, making it ideal for measuring in hard-to-reach areas. *For more details, please refer to the documentation.

Acquire 3D data of a wide area of the surface in a short time. Suitable for shortening construction periods and reducing manpower!

The 'UL-3', developed by TI Asahi, known for its PENTAX brand surveying instruments, is a UAV laser surveying system that can acquire high-precision 3D data of extensive surface areas using a LiDAR sensor and three 26 MP cameras. It can fly for up to 30 minutes and is particularly suitable for measuring forest areas and disaster sites. The measurement distance is up to 300 meters. It employs high-rate GNSS/IMU sensors and the Matrice 350 airframe. The included LP360Drone software makes it easy to create deliverables, effectively shortening project timelines and reducing manpower. 【Features】 ■ LiDAR sensor with a point cloud density of 640,000 points/360° ■ Maximum measurement distance of 300 meters, suitable for forest areas and disaster sites ■ Equipped with high-rate GNSS/IMU sensors and the Matrice 350 airframe ■ Maximum flight time of 30 minutes (during hovering) with a communication range of approximately 8 km ■ The area that can be measured on a full charge is 458 m x 458 m = approximately 21 ha (equivalent to about 4.5 Tokyo Domes). ■ The intuitive software "LP360" allows for the generation of deliverables and classification of point clouds. *For more details, please download the materials or contact us.

―― Is attendance management becoming a "burden" without you realizing it? A seminar to quickly learn about common issues and their solutions ―― We will be holding our attendance management web seminar in October, which takes place several times a year! The content is new, so whether you have participated in our webinars before or not, please feel free to join us. Date and Time: October 15 (Wednesday) 13:00- October 22 (Wednesday) 11:00- *Both days will cover the same content *Please check the link below for registration. In this seminar, we will recreate common situations in the workplace in a short drama format for easy understanding, and introduce specific solutions to each issue. This content is especially recommended for those who think, "I'm not struggling now, but I want to know information for the future." Common workplace "situations" can be a trigger for improvement. We will clearly present the challenges and countermeasures of attendance management. Recommended for: ❏ Those who take a long time to compile monthly attendance ❏ Those who tend to postpone compliance with legal revisions ❏ Those who currently have no major complaints but want to know hints for improvement ❏ Those who want to refer to initiatives and examples from other companies

On Monday, September 22, the Japan Meteorological Agency announced its three-month forecast for October to December. Due to the continued influence of conditions similar to the La Niña phenomenon until around December, the westerly winds are expected to flow more to the north than usual from October to early November, making it likely that warm air will cover the entire country. From late November to December, the westerly winds are expected to meander southward near Japan, and there may be periods when the winter pressure pattern strengthens. In December, the region is likely to be affected by cold air, and temperatures in western and eastern Japan are expected to be around or lower than the average for the season.

~ Are lightweight, flexible solar panels becoming mainstream? ~ Film-type perovskite solar cells, organic thin-film solar cells, and lightweight crystalline silicon solar cells are all lightweight and flexible solar panels that stand apart from the traditional "heavy and rigid" panels and are now vying for the spotlight. 〇 Why is "lightweight" gaining attention now? Conventional solar panels are heavy, and due to structural limitations, there have been many cases where they cannot be installed on roofs. This has been particularly true for small to medium-sized factories, warehouses, and hospitals in urban areas, where weight restrictions have become a barrier to installation. This is where the "lightweight and flexible" new panels come into focus. 〇 The key to full-scale development towards 2040: "Perovskite solar cells" The film-type perovskite solar cells are expected to drive future growth. - If you're considering installation, now is the chance! Kenneth Energy Development supports companies in reducing electricity costs and achieving environmental management through industrial rooftop solar power generation.

The latest "Calcophyllite Solar Cells" have been installed at the international terminal building of Fukuoka Airport. These solar cells are characterized by their ultra-lightweight and thin design, weighing only 0.8 kg per square meter. Because they can be installed without putting a burden on the roofs of buildings and facilities, they are attracting attention as a technology that greatly expands the possibilities of solar power generation in the future. The installation and demonstration experiments will be conducted by Kyuden Mirai Energy. The solar cells are provided by PXP Corporation, the construction is handled by Kyudenko, and the installation support is provided by JGC Corporation, with performance and construction feasibility being verified from December 2025 to February 2026. Particularly in places like airports, the shape of the roof and the impact of reflected light are also important verification points. This time, practical usability will be confirmed, including those factors. Fukuoka Airport is also planning an exhibition to introduce the details of the experiment. The day may soon come when lightweight and high-performance solar cells become the "norm" in future buildings.
