Overview
Hovermap Backpack is Emesent wearable mapping configuration for ground-based 3D data capture. It lets operators use Hovermap as a backpack-mounted scanner for indoor, underground and infrastructure mapping where drones or vehicles are not suitable.
Market context
Hovermap Backpack is a backpack-mounted deployment mode for Emesent Hovermap mobile mapping.
- Target environment: Industrial, mining, AEC and infrastructure sites where a walking scan is preferable to drone or vehicle deployment.
- Workflow context: Allows operators to collect LiDAR-SLAM point clouds while walking through assets, using the broader Hovermap mapping workflow.
- Customer context: Surveyors, mine-mapping teams, AEC reality-capture teams and inspection contractors.
- Deployment model: Accessory/deployment configuration within the Hovermap product ecosystem.
- Commercial maturity: Publicly listed Hovermap deployment option and accessory pathway.
- Adoption constraints: Not a separate aircraft; compare it as a mounting/deployment configuration for Hovermap rather than as an independent sensor platform.
- Market position: Useful alternative capture mode for Hovermap users standardizing one scanner across several access methods.
- Adjacent products: Emesent Hovermap, Emesent Hovermap ST-X, handheld SLAM scanners
Workflow
