Measure Inaccessible Points
With its laser-based surveying capabilities and high-precision heading information, the i85 enables accurate measurements of points that are otherwise inaccessible, expanding your reach without sacrificing accuracy.
Advanced GNSS Performance
Powered by the iStar2.0 algorithm and ionospheric interference rejection, the i85 achieves a 96% fix reliability in low-latitude regions affected by solar activity. It ensures robust signal tracking in challenging environments.
Smart Aiming Assistance
AR Visual Navigation and Stakeout
High-Precision Auto-IMU
The 200Hz IMU supports automatic tilt compensation with no manual initialization required. The i85 maintains 3 cm accuracy within a 60° tilt range, delivering consistent results.
Rugged, Compact Design
Built for demanding field use, the i85 combines all key components into a single compact 800 g unit. It is IP68-rated for water and dust resistance and can withstand a 2-meter pole drop.
