YellowScan Navigator
One button bathymetric LiDAR operation
YellowScan Navigator with bathymetric LiDAR is an innovative solution for exploring underwater and terrestrial topography with one-button operation. Its lightweight design allows flexible platform selection without compromising water penetration.

The YellowScan Navigator solution features a laser scanner developed by YellowScan’s R&D team over the past few years with testing starting in 2023, refining the system for optimal performance. This development highlights their commitment to innovation and quality, particularly in the development of advanced laser scanners.
44° FOV for high accuracy
Our bathymetric system, with a 44-degree field of view, prioritizes accuracy over a wider angle. This decision is based on the fact that 44° is the maximum angle for a green laser to be effective underwater. Beyond this angle, the penetration depth of the laser into the water is significantly affected, limiting the overall performance of the system.
Adaptability to multiple platforms
- The system can be used on UAVs with multiple rotors or helicopters. As for drones, the GREMSY “quick release” attachment allows for easy mounting on a wide range of drones.
Basic spects
- Altitude AGL: Up to 100m
- System accuracy: 3cm
- Weight: 3.7kg (without battery weight)
Advanced calibration
- All YellowScan systems come with a calibration certificate.
Features
