Anyone who works with the XGRIDS PortalCam knows the challenge: ceilings, facades, or high-altitude installations are often difficult to reach. Ladders or scaffolding take time, limit flexibility, and also increase safety requirements. With the extension pole, you can quickly and efficiently extend your scanning range without any additional equipment.

Especially for applications such as inventory documentation or industrial plant recording, the elevated camera position enables a significantly more complete data basis. This is particularly beneficial for photorealistic visualizations using Gaussian splatting.

Range, compactness, and stability combined

When extended, the extension pole reaches a length of up to 2 meters. This allows hall ceilings, facade areas, or plant structures to be conveniently scanned from the ground. This saves time in the project process, increases work safety, and at the same time improves scan coverage, especially in hard-to-reach areas at height.

The pole is ideal for mobile use thanks to its compact packing size of only 0.56 meters. The six extendable segments can be quickly secured using a sturdy twist lock. This ensures that the PortalCam remains securely positioned even when extended, enabling smooth, shake-free images.

Title
Optimized data acquisition for Gaussian splatting

First column

An elevated camera position has a direct impact on the quality of downstream visualizations. Better viewing angles and additional overhead perspectives result in more complete image datasets.

These form an ideal basis for Gaussian splatting workflows, in which realistic 3D visualizations are generated from image and scan data. Ceiling structures, pipe routes, and facade details in particular can be rendered much more cleanly and cohesively. The result is more immersive scenes for presentations, VR applications, or digital twins.

Another practical advantage is the integrated, tiltable ball head. This allows you to align the camera and also scan slightly slanted perspectives flexibly. It can be attached without tools using the standardized 1/4-inch thread. Screw on the camera, align it, and start capturing data right away.

In addition to the extension pole, the scope of delivery includes an Allen key and a matching carrying case for safe transport.
