Pavement ProfilingGocator® is integrated into longitudinal road profiling systems to rapidly scan and collect real-time, continuous 3D data of pavement surfaces in order to determine overall Ride Quality.Built-In Bridging AlgorithmWorkhorse 3D laser line profilers for high-speed roughness and ride quality inspection.LEARN MOREHigh-Speed, Accurate and Wide Scan WidthDelivers 5 kHz maximum profile output with a scan width of 140 mm. By acquiring data from a wide area, measurement accuracy is far superior than results achievable by single point sensors.This feature in Gocator® outputs a single, averaged surface height measurement for tire-to-pavement contact area in order to calculate roughness index—independent of pavement type, tining, or grooving.Gocator® 2342Vehicle SafetyLow mounting height (< 1 m) and vertical projection minimizes laser safety hazards.Rutting InspectionGocator® is integrated into transverse road profiling systems to scan and help identify the formation of surface depressions within the wheel path.Scalable ArchitectureBuilt-in scalability allows for easy creation of multi-sensor networks that provide full lane coverage.Dynamic ExposureTo handle variations in pavement surface type, Gocator’s dynamic exposure control automatically adjusts exposure based on laser signal strength to optimize data quality.Specialized 3D laser line profiler for high-speed rut scanningGocator® 2375LEARN MOREDynamic WindowingSearching and Tracking states delivers continuous high speed sensor performance.Pavement Joint FlushnessGocator® scans concrete pavement and generates profiles for use in identifying faulted/uneven sections of the road.Gocator® 2300 SeriesLEARN MOREIn addition to 3D shape data, a 2D intensity output is provided at each point for aligning transverse profiles relative to lane markers.2D and 3D CapabilityWorkhorse 3D laser line profilers for a wide variety of inspection applicationsHandles All Pavement TypesGocator® provides accurate data on all pavement types, including tined, grooved, or diamond-ground concrete and asphalt.Compact and Lightweight DesignGocator’s small footprint and 0.94 k.g. weight make it ideal for fitting into tight spaces and mounting onto vehicles. A full 8 sensor system can mount onto a 2.4 m wide vehicle and weighs under 12 kg.Rail ProfilingGocator® generates cross-sectional 3D profiles to measure rail head size, cant, face angle, vertical head wear, and more.Gocator® 2350LEARN MOREGocator® accurately identifies defects in the rail surface such as crushed head, split head, split web, horizontal/transverse cracks and fissures, square breaks, and more.Robust Defect DetectionCost-effective, robot-ready 3D laser line profile sensors.Real-Time Onboard Data ProcessingBuffered, real-time processing onboard the sensor head ensures no lost or compromised data and no lag time.Easy System IntegrationGocator’s compact, lightweight body and web browser-based architecture allow it to easily integrate into existing rail profiling systems.Track GeometryGocator® provides high-density 3D measurements of track gauge, curvature, cross-level, surface, alignment, speed, twist, and warp.Gocator® 2300 SeriesLEARN MOREMicrosecond Data SynchronizationExternal sync pulse output synchronizes profile data to external accelerometers with microsecond precision—providing technicians with a unified data source for fast and integrated acquisition, analysis, and reporting.Gocator® is a proven 3D solution for measuring the spacing of the rails on a railway track, taken between the inner faces of the load-bearing rail.Proven Gauge InspectionCost-effective, robot-ready 3D laser line profile sensors.
Smart 3D Machine Vision for the Road and Rail IndustriesGocator® 3D smart sensors provide high-performance, non-contact 3D scanning for an array of applications essential to the road and rail industries—including pavement profiling, rut inspection, rail profiling, and track gauge.
