The Leica RTC Series
Welcome to a new dimension in reality capture. One trusted design. Three levels of performance.
Built on Leica Geosystems’ mastery of 3D laser scanning, the new RTC laser scanners bring together superior scanning performance, software, and cloud collaboration into a real-time workflow architecture, creating a new way of working. Capture high-density 3D data with confidence, share progress as it happens, and keep field, cloud and office users aligned in one continuous workflow.
Leica RTC300
Agile reality capture ideal for building construction and fast-moving project environments. The RTC300 combines trusted Leica RTC accuracy and speed with a practical path from single-scanner workflows to scalable, connected operations.
Leica RTC500
Balanced performance and operational flexibility for surveying, construction, public safety, and infrastructure teams. The RTC500 delivers the range, speed, and capability required to adapt to changing site conditions as project demands change.
Leica RTC700
Built for large-scale infrastructure, industrial plant and complex surveying environments, the RTC700 delivers maximum capability for range, accuracy and ultra-fast data capture with advanced multi-scanner surveying workflows at scale.
What makes the new RTC Series different?
Higher performance scanning
The latest RTC hardware combines high-speed, high-density laser scanning and onboard storage with a more rugged IP55-rated design to handle the most dynamic job sites.
Field-to-office collaboration
Livelink in Leica Cyclone FIELD 360 eliminates site revisits while work is still unfolding by connecting field and office teams through Hexagon GeoCloud.
Faster data visualization
VIS technology automatically registers scans in the field, turning captured reality into full, usable datasets — ready for BIM, CAD, and the visualization tools you already use.
Built for the way you already work
RTC fits the software ecosystem your teams use today — connect to Hexagon GeoCloud, Cyclone, Autodesk Revit, and other CAD/BIM tools without switching workflows.
Built for specialized reality capture workflows.
Leica RTC supports professionals across industries where accurate, connected 3D data helps teams make better decisions faster.
Surveying
Capture accurate site conditions, manage large scan volumes, and coordinate complex projects with confidence from field to office. Bring registered scan data into BIM workflows, so VDC teams can model against real conditions with less friction.
Building construction
Document existing conditions, verify progress, support Scan vs BIM workflows, and reduce the risk of decisions based on incomplete site information.
Plant and industrial
Capture complex facilities where accuracy, access time, and coordination matter. Support safer planning, better documentation, and more confident engineering decisions.
Public safety and forensics
Capture scenes quickly and accurately, preserve critical details, and support investigation workflows with reliable 3D documentation.
