Trimble VISION technology
The S7 total station and some models of the S9 total station are equipped with Trimble VISION™ technology.
Trimble VISION technology incorporates a calibrated camera into the instrument which allows live video to be streamed via radio connection to the controller. Trimble VISION technology can be used to take snap shots for documentation purposes, frame the area to be scanned or give the user the view from the instrument real time in the display of the controller.
You can see the measured points in the display of the controller.
You can also use the Trimble VISION technology to control the instrument from the controllers touch screen. Click on a point in the displayed picture and the instrument will point the telescope towards this point.
For more information refer to the field software documentation.
CAUTION – Do not make direct sun observations without a camera sun filter foil. this might cause damage to the camera.
