Small size, big performance
This robust scanner sends out a laser beam that captures data at 30,000 points per second at a range
of 500 ft. (150m) to a typical surface, and with an extended range to 1100 ft. (330m) for more
reflective surfaces. Unique to Topcon’s GLS-1500 is the mechanical ability to select from multiple lens
arrays to control the laser beam. This provides consistent 0.16 in. (4mm) accuracy throughout the
range from 3 ft. to 500 ft. (1m to 150m).
On-board Data Collection
The GLS-1500 has an on-board data collector with an LCD display and a 21-key keyboard. This gives
the scanner the freedom to function as a stand-alone laser scanner with no connection to a computer
Eye-safe and Efficient
Use the GLS-1500 anywhere without worrying about damaging the eyes of a passersby. The GLS-1500
uses an invisible, Class 1, eye-safe laser. Scan near airports, busy traffic, and populated areas with no
effect to the people or the environment. In addition, the use of a Class 1 invisible laser offers the
benefit of low power consumption. With lower power consumption, the GLS-1500 can operate at longer
times with fewer battery changes.
Built-in 2.0 Megapixel Digital Camera
Reduce the amount of equipment needed in the field with the GLS-1500’s built-in 2.0 megapixel digital
camera. Collect sharp and detailed images from the scanning location, or connect to a PC with
ScanMaster software, and stream a live video feed of the jobsite to aid in scan setup and data
acquisition

Topcon GLS-1500
Topcon’s GLS-1500 laser
scanner leaves nothing
behind—except the competition.
The operator-friendly design
allows for quick and hassle-free
setups which saves time and
improves productivity. With
batteries and data collector on-
board, Topcon’s GLS-1500 is
lightweight and cable-free.
Transportation is a cinch. While
other laser scanners take two
people to unload, setup,
operate, and load, the GLS-1500
is a one-man instrument.
