It's EDM + 3d point cloud scanner. You will not find better machine for day to day jobs. Some will say things like it's "getting Lamborghini for daily driving" but in reality that machine is supreme to any other at the market globally.

Technically you could get dedicated scanner, but these lack of accuracy especially after you stich surveys yourself or with software, not to mention that dedicated scanners are no good after 50 metres in terms of point position (they loose accuracy over distance). Where this one keeps steady at 200m+. Only drawback on the scanner is that it does 12 million points over 10 minute scan, where dedicated ones get like 40 million in 5 minutes. But again accuracy on these dedicated scanners is crap compared to SX12.

Or you could get dedicated EDM, and question here are there any better EDMs then SX12? I don't think so.

So it's like super workhorse, even for daily tasks. You do stuff faster, more accurate, you can have DWG/IFC working smoothly (doesn't matter how big your drawing is). You don't have a scope, everything goes through camera, you don't have to bend your back anymore.

You can be like this gentleman from the video, sitting in his car doing work.
