AR Visual Stakeout:
The i93's AR stakeout displays design coordinates as a bold directional arrow overlaid on the camera's live view, with real-time distance shown on screen. Instead of interpreting abstract numbers on a controller screen, the operator simply walks toward the arrow until the distance reads zero. For less experienced staff, this removes the most common source of stakeout error. For experienced surveyors, it cuts stakeout time significantly on high-volume programmes.
Visual Surveying:
The i93's dual cameras extract survey-grade 3D coordinates directly from real-world video - letting you measure points you cannot physically reach with a pole. Areas under bridge decks, roof eaves, overhead power infrastructure, and the edges of dangerous excavations can all be measured accurately from a safe distance. For construction verification and as-built surveys in live environments, this removes the need to close areas or work at height.
3D Building and Facade Modelling:
Merge the i93's dynamic panoramic video with drone imagery to create 3D joint models of buildings and facades within standard 3D modelling software. For digital twin projects, heritage documentation, and detailed as-built records of complex structures, this workflow delivers georeferenced 3D outputs without requiring a separate photogrammetry system. The i93 and a UAV together replace multiple pieces of specialist equipment.
34-Hour Battery:
The i93's 9900 mAh battery delivers up to 34 hours of RTK rover operation - more than twice the endurance of most competing receivers. On a busy construction site or remote topographic survey, this means a single charge comfortably covers a full working day plus contingency, without battery logistics becoming a management issue.
Built-In 4G LTE:
Unlike the i85 which requires a separate device for cellular data, the i93 has integrated 4G LTE - connecting directly to NTRIP correction services over the mobile network without additional hardware. Combined with built-in Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC, and UHF modem, the i93 supports every RTK connectivity mode a professional survey programme might require, from CORS networks to local base-rover setups.
PointSky Satellite Correction Included:
One year of PointSky is included as standard with the i93. Delivered via satellite rather than a mobile network, PointSky provides 2.5 cm accuracy in open-sky conditions without a base station or NTRIP connection - ideal for remote area surveys, large sites where a base is impractical, and any location where mobile data coverage is unreliable. PointSky and the i93's integrated 4G together give the operator a correction service for essentially any environment.
