Supported Instruments
SpatialAnalyzer® (SA) by New River Kinematics (NRK) supports a wide range of portable metrology instruments (and the list is always growing!). In fact, SA currently interfaces with 120+ instruments while providing a common interface for each instrument class. We're continually adding new instrument interfaces as new technology hits the market. And, we always keep up with the latest instrument enhancements in order to adjust our interfaces and take full advantage of device capabilities. The types of portable metrology instruments that we support are as follows:
- Laser Trackers
- Portable CMM Arms
- Laser Radars
- Robotic Total Stations
- Theodolites
- Scanners
- Photogrammetric devices
- Laser Projectors
Below is a list of instruments that we support organized alphabetically by manufacturer.
