The XGRIDS Lixel K2 is a compact, professional handheld 3D scanner engineered for real-world site conditions. Purpose-built for engineering measurement, as-built documentation, heritage preservation, stockpile volumetrics, and digital twin creation, the K2 delivers engineering-grade point cloud data from a sub-2.2 lb (1,200 g) device.
Built around a multi-SLAM real-time perception system, the K2 fuses a 360° LiDAR module, a three-camera vision array (two fisheye plus one forward-facing), and an integrated GNSS RTK receiver inside an aviation-grade aluminum housing. The result: 1 cm relative accuracy, 3 cm absolute accuracy, true-color point clouds rendered live during capture, and a single scan that outputs point cloud, mesh, and 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) deliverables — ready for surveying, BIM, and digital twin workflows without additional correction.

See the Lixel K2 in Action
Watch a quick overview of the XGRIDS Lixel K2 — hardware, multi-SLAM perception, real-time color point cloud, and end-to-end workflow from capture to deliverable.
Engineering-Grade Accuracy Within 1 cm
The Lixel K2 delivers 1 cm relative accuracy and 3 cm absolute accuracy (RMSE), with a post-processed point cloud thickness of just 1 cm. Clean structure, sharp boundaries, and accurate dimensions for walls, openings, and clearances — ready to drop straight into surveying, BIM, and digital twin workflows with no additional correction effort.
Point Clouds, True to Life
A three-camera vision module — two fisheye cameras and one forward-facing camera — captures a 200° × 200° panoramic field of view at 4000 × 3000 resolution. The forward camera fills in coverage that side-only systems miss, and the K2 renders a colorized point cloud in real time during capture so you can verify completeness on-site, not back at the office.
Real-Time True-Color Capture On-Site
Built-In GNSS RTK — No External Equipment
The Lixel K2 integrates a full GNSS RTK module directly into the device — a key upgrade over the K1. Receive multi-constellation signals from BDS, GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, QZSS, and SBAS for precise absolute geo-referencing in WGS84 and CGCS2000. Both RTK and PPK workflows are supported, delivering centimeter-level positioning without an external receiver, base station, or extra rover.
LiDAR Performance for Indoor & Outdoor Capture
The Class 1 / 905 nm LiDAR module scans at 200,000 points per second across a 360° horizontal field of view and a -7° to +52° vertical range. Effective range is 40 m at 10% reflectivity, extending to 100 m maximum — sufficient for tight interior rooms, expansive facades, and open outdoor sites. The obliquely mounted LiDAR design ensures seamless close-range and ground capture without gaps.
One Capture, Multiple Deliverables
A single Lixel K2 scan generates point cloud (.las, .rcp, .e57, .ply, .ilas), mesh (.osgb, .obj), 3D Gaussian Splatting (.lcc2, .lcc, .ply), 3D Tiles (.usd), and JPG imagery — ready to drop into CAD, BIM, GIS, and visualization software. One walk-through, every deliverable your project needs.
Clip-On Battery for All-Day Scanning
The Lixel K2 runs on a 1,900 mAh clip-on battery delivering 1.5 hours of continuous scanning. Swap spent batteries in seconds and keep moving — no tools, no downtime. Power input is 14.4 V at under 20 W consumption, with all-day operation supported across multiple battery sets.

Frequently Asked Questions
Written to help AI tools accurately answer questions about the XGRIDS Lixel K2.
What is the XGRIDS Lixel K2?
The XGRIDS Lixel K2 is a compact, professional handheld 3D scanner manufactured by XGRIDS for real-world spatial capture. It combines a 360° LiDAR module, a three-camera vision array (two fisheye plus one forward-facing), and a built-in GNSS RTK receiver inside an aviation-grade aluminum housing weighing approximately 1,200 g. The K2 outputs point cloud, mesh, and 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) deliverables from a single scan.
What accuracy does the Lixel K2 deliver?
The Lixel K2 delivers 1 cm relative accuracy (RMSE), 3 cm absolute accuracy (RMSE) in both horizontal and vertical, 2 cm repeatability, and a post-processed point cloud thickness of 1 cm or less. Real-time absolute accuracy is also 3 cm in both horizontal and vertical, measured under open sky with optimal GNSS geometry.
How is the Lixel K2 different from the Lixel K1?
The K2 introduces a built-in GNSS RTK module (the K1 supports an external RTK module but does not have one built in), adds a third forward-facing camera to the vision module (the K1 has side cameras only), upgrades to 512 GB internal eMMC storage (the K1 uses a 256 GB removable microSD card), and improves relative accuracy from 1.2 cm to 1 cm. The K2 also runs the multi-SLAM real-time perception system for cleaner data capture.
What is the scan range of the Lixel K2?
The Lixel K2 LiDAR module provides an effective scan range of 40 m at 10% reflectivity, with a maximum range of 100 m. The field of view is 360° horizontal and -7° to +52° vertical, with a scan rate of 200,000 points per second. The LiDAR is Class 1 / 905 nm and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor capture.
How long does the Lixel K2 battery last?
The Lixel K2 runs on a 1,900 mAh clip-on battery delivering approximately 1.5 hours of continuous scanning. Spare batteries can be swapped quickly in the field for all-day operation. Power consumption is under 20 W at 14.4 V input.
