  • Teledyne FLIR Ladybug6 360° Spherical Camera

  • High-resolution 72 megapixel 360-degree spherical camera.
  • Designed for use on moving platforms.
  • IP67 designed for use in all-weather conditions.
  • Pixel values spatially accurate within +/- 2 mm @ 10m.
  • On-board image processing.
  • Compatible with laser mobile scanning systems from Leica, Riegl, Trimble, etc. 

Ladybug6 is the leading high-resolution camera designed to capture 360-degree spherical images from moving platforms in all-weather conditions. Its industrial grade design and out-of-the-box factory calibration produces 72 Megapixel (MP) images with pixel values that are spatially accurate within +/- 2 mm at 10-meter distance.

As the newest member of our field-proven Ladybug series, the Ladybug6 builds on our machine vision heritage with increased image resolution, enhanced on-board processing, and robust IP67-rated connectors. Support for additional Global Navigation Satellite Systems and advanced APIs, combined with hardware inputs, enable precise camera settings and trigger control. Customer applications include panoramic street image production, road surveying, asset inspection, feature extraction for HD map generation among several others.
