Z+F LaserControl
Z+F LaserControl
Zoller + Fröhlich GmbH (Z+F) is a leading manufacturer of finest laser scanning devices worldwide. Our Z+F IMAGER® 5010 rapidly delivers high-resolution measurement results within very
short time and a 360° horizontal / 320° vertical field of view. With a maximum data acquisition
rate of over one million pixels per second it is the most powerful device on the market. Z+F
LaserControl provides all necessary tools to manage your scan jobs efficiently. It is a unique
software solution with complete workflow from data capturing to delivery. Three different
software packages are available for getting the ideal solution according to your needs.

Z+F LaserControl Elements is the freedom to view and browse your
point cloud data without any cost. Besides checking the accuracy status
of the device calibration, basic measurement functions are implemented.
Furthermore it is the key to access and operate all Z+F products of the
entire Z+F IMAGER and Z+F PROFILER family. Download your free version
of LaserControl Elements at www.zf-laser.com or contact your local Z+F partner.
Viewer
Measurement Functions
Direct Scanner Control
Opening a scan, the data is
displayed in a high-resolution 2D
grayscale view (intensity image).
Viewing point clouds from different positions is very easy. Point
size and subsample rate are user
defined.
There are different measurement functions integrated in Z+F
LaserControl Elements, to define
distances in 2D and 3D very
quickly, for instance the height
of a room. All measurements
are stored in layers and can be
displayed at any time.
Z+F LaserControl supports the
entire control of the scanner hardware (Z+F IMAGER series). Direct
TCP/IP comunication with the
scanner device and FTP download to your PC of onboard stored
data give best flexibility.

Z+F LaserControl Professional is the solution delivered with every laserscanner
of the IMAGER and PROFILER series. A suite of filters allow differentiated preprocessing of scan data and are the key to a highly accurate registration. By adding colour information with the included color module the scan data is ready for
post-processing through a wide range of export formats. Naturally all LaserControl
Element features are included. In addition the Kinematic function gives extended
usability for profiling applications.
Filter
Slice
Target Registration
The filter functions will optimise your point cloud quality. Z+F
LaserControl generates a mask
for each filter, which just marks
the filtered points in a certain
colour. The filters will not delete any point. The tool box
allows individual filter settings.
Z+F LaserControl calculates predefined slice from a point cloud.
These can also be displayed in
the 3D View or exported in dxf- or
txt-format. Free slice orientation
allows optimum placement to the
object geometries.
Z+F LaserControl Professional is
equipped with all common registration functions. The workflow
includes the definition and naming
of identical points, the calculation
process and the generation of a
registration report. Automatic registration with Z+F AutoTargets
shortens registration time up to a
factor of five.

Kinematic
Import / Export
Photo mapping leads to a better
and easier interpretation of the
point cloud. For more information
please see page 6.
From simple measurements to
complex clearance functions the
kinematic module offers tools to
manage and analyze 2D scans
from mobile mapping applications.
Z+F LaserControl provides a large
range of import / export formats.

Z+F LaserControl Professional PLUS gives extended functions for registration,
additional data visualisation and project management tools. Both, form sensitive Cloud-to-Cloud and Plane-to-Plane registration decrease dramatically
the need of targets. Saving time in the field and in the office are the striking
benefits of these future orientated registration tools. Furthermore fly throughs
can be generated, simulated and saved. Your static imagery can be rectified and
printed to scale. The relocation of misplaced data with the mirror filter is the right
tool to bring your point clouds to perfection. Finally the linktool offers you best
usability for project management.

Orthophotos
Linktool
Plane-to-Plane Registration*
Orthophotographic views are easily set with this feature. Selected
points are projected onto a user
defined plane. This enables you
to generate orthogonal views and
scaled floor plans. The graphic
results can be exported into
various file formats.
With the link-tool it is possible to
link external files like pictures, documents etc. at any position of
the scan. These files will also be
added to the project-structure
and vice versa all information of
a scan-project can be digitally
added to the scan forming one
unit. In addition to that it is possible
to add notes into the scan.
The algorithm uses identical
planes, and if necessary, points
in the overlapping range of two
adjacent scans. The accessible neighbourhood accuracy is at
submillimeter scale. Automatic
plane detection is done separately for each scan; a matching
algorithm finds plane identities.
Registration is divided into pairwise transformations and a concluding block adjustment.
Cloud-to-Cloud Registration
Mirror Filter
Video-Plugin
The user will provide an approximate alignement through preregistration stage, either manually
in 3D or with a simple mouse-click
within the 2D environment. In just
one more step the automatic
registration is completed.
In some cases, scans may contain misplaced data due to the
presence of highly reflecting
surfaces, e.g. thermo-insulated
windows, glass or mirrors. This
tool allows the relocation of these
points onto the mirror plane!
This plugin allows to fly through a
point cloud in 3D view. The selected trajectory can be stored and
reloaded even after manipulation
of the current data set.

Additional Modules
Forensics
Shot Trajectory
View-from-Eye
3D Movie / Fly Through
A tool to calculate a possible
area within the 3D point cloud
where the shot was fired from,
just by some mouse clicks.
Only a rectilinear flight pass is
calculated without any ballistics.
Any position within the point
cloud can be taken and a viewfrom-eye can be simulated. A
very powerful tool to verify what
witnesses or suspects could or
could not see from their position.
Take the crime or accident scene
into the court room instead of
taking the judge, the lawyers and
the jury out to the crime scene. A
flight through the point cloud can
be created which gives a realistic 3D impression of the scene.

Our philosophy is to be a constant partner to the users of our products. The
Forensics module is a customised product that matches the high standards as of the
German police. Using 3D data enables forensics experts to visualise crime scenes
to simulate a sequence of events. Besides existing functions for the 2D and 3D
visualisation, the module offers additional features to analyse the crime scene e.g.
shot trajectory or view-from-eye. Even after years a reconstruction of the scenery
is feasible to verify new evidence.
An ideal base for object visualisation is obtained by combining 3D data with digital
photography. Recognition and analysis is much easier through visual illustration
rather than geometric characteristics. In addition, colour information includes a documental value, which is interesting for certain applications. A connection of both
survey methods can be realised when the laser scanner is equipped with a digital
camera, which detects pictures in addition to the scan process.
