General Dynamics realtime 3D maping
2008-04-01 04:26:00 General Dynamics UK touts near real-time 3D maps for soldiersPosted Mar 31st 2008 4:53PM by Donald MelansonFiled under: Misc.

The use of LIDAR also promises to provide measurements of doors, windows, and alleys with "millimeter accuracy." All that obviously makes the system, dubbed Masthead, slightly less than portable, however, although General Dynamics says it'd be able to be carried in the back of a military vehicle or civilian 4x4, or in a plane for that matter. Of course, like most such projects, General Dynamics isn't just se...
