Introducing OpenScan Halo: Planet-scale photogrammetry

For years, OpenScan has focused on affordable 3D scanning for smaller objects.
Today, we are ready to take the next logical step.

Meet OpenScan Halo: a photogrammetry rig made of multiple synchronized belts around the Earth, designed to deliver 100% scan coverage, 24/7.

  • No turntable needed, passive rotation provided by existing planetary motion.
  • Improved occlusion handling through orbital belt redundancy.
  • Affordable 3D scanning for the masses. All of them.
  • Seamless metadata synchronization across all longitudes
  • Multi-hemisphere capture for improved underside coverage.
  • Cloud, fog and haze processing in the OpenScanCloud.

Early internal tests have shown promising results for terrain, buildings, coastlines, and other medium-sized planetary features.

We are currently exploring strategic partnerships with rocket-owning billionaires.
