The 3DMakerPro Raven is a handheld LiDAR spatial scanner built to capture large spaces in real-time 3D — natural caves, landforms, buildings, and outdoor scenes. It collects precise point clouds on the move, turns them into shareable online 3D interactive scenes, and runs as a self-contained unit with an on-board AMOLED touchscreen. Choose the single-camera Raven, the dual-camera Raven max, or the Raven max RTK with the RTK module included.
A handheld LiDAR spatial scanner for large scenes
Real-time spatial point clouds
Raven collects accurate point clouds in large spaces that fixed scanners can't reach. RTK positioning aligns scans to the real scene for survey-grade comparison between captured data and the actual site, with accuracy up to 2 cm.
Large-scale online 3D scenes
Large-scale, real-time data collection quickly forms online 3D interaction, letting you move freely through a 360° reconstruction of a real physical space. A fusion splatting engine and instant web publisher turn a scan into a shareable interactive scene.
Portable and self-contained
A 3.9" AMOLED touchscreen shows scanning progress in real time with no external device required. The fast-charging 12,000 mAh battery supports about 2 hours of work and can run on external power while charging.
Flexible output and expansion
Export colored point clouds and 3D Gaussian splatting as PLY, and colored polygonal models as OBJ. Expand with the RTK kit for georeferencing, or an Insta360 X4/X5 kit for richer panoramic color.
RayStudio & Vision Cloud — free with every Raven
RayStudio and the Vision Cloud Exhibition platform are included free with every scanner, with lifetime updates and no subscription. The workflow covers:
- Real-time capture on the on-board AMOLED screen
- One-click import, filtering, and stitching
- 3D modeling, mesh, and Gaussian splatting
- Export to PLY and OBJ
- Instant publishing to shareable online 3D scenes
Raven, Raven max, or Raven max RTK?
All three share the same LiDAR core, 2 cm accuracy, and 150,000 points per second. The differences are the color cameras and whether the RTK module ships included.

What Raven LiDAR unlocks
-
Cave & landform mapping — capture physical data of natural caves and terrain that fixed scanners can't reach.
-
Outdoor site surveys — scan large outdoor scenes on the move, with RTK to bind data to real-world coordinates.
-
Architecture & buildings — document facades and whole structures in true-color 3D for as-builts and BIM.
-
Cultural heritage — build non-contact 3D records of sites and monuments for preservation and study.
-
Real estate & virtual tours — turn a walk-through into a shareable online 3D scene clients can explore.
-
Public safety — reconstruct scenes quickly and share spatial records across departments.

Raven LiDAR scanner FAQs
Is RTK included?
RTK is optional on the Raven and Raven max (add the RTK expansion kit) and included on the Raven max RTK. All three support RTK positioning for survey-grade georeferencing.
How is the Raven different from the Eagle?
Raven is built for spatial capture of large and outdoor spaces and for publishing online interactive 3D scenes — lighter at 1.1 kg, ~2 hours of battery, 12 MP color. The Eagle targets higher-resolution 8K imaging with up to four 48 MP cameras. Choose Raven for reach and shareable scenes, Eagle for color detail.
Can I publish scans online?
Yes. A fusion splatting engine and instant web publisher turn a scan into a shareable, explorable online 3D scene — no extra software needed.
Does it need a computer to scan?
No. The 3.9" AMOLED touchscreen shows progress in real time and the unit is self-contained, so you can scan without an external device.
What file formats can I export?
Colored point clouds and 3D Gaussian splatting as PLY, and colored polygonal models as OBJ — ready for CAD, BIM, and 3D tools.
Is the laser safe to use around people?
Yes. The Raven uses a 905 nm Class 1 laser, certified eye-safe under IEC 60825-1:2014 for normal use.
