One Walk. Two Deliverables.
The Lixel K2 is the scanner most Australian survey and construction teams should try first: under 1 kg, built-in RTK, real-time colourised capture, and dual output — a survey-grade point cloud (under 1 cm relative accuracy) and a photoreal 3DGS model from the same walk. See what that looks like in our live 3DGS Gallery — several of those scenes were captured with a K2 in minutes.
The No-Obligation Demo-to-Buy Plan exists because a spec sheet can't tell you how a scanner fits your workflow — only a real job can. Take the K2 for up to five days at $250/day, run it on your actual project, process the data in LixelStudio, and put the deliverable in front of your client. Decide to buy within 90 days and every dollar of hire comes off the price of any XGRIDS hardware or software — the K2 itself (from $15,999 inc GST), a different model, or software. Decide not to, and you've paid a fair rate to find out — no obligation, no lock-in.
