Hyperion + EOS2 LiDAR

Automated stockpile monitoring you can trust.

Permanently mounted EOS2 LiDAR sensors scan your piles on a schedule or on demand. Hyperion turns every scan into a quality-checked volume and tonnage within minutes, with no one on the pile.

Hardware

EOS2 LiDAR sensor

A long-range, 360° spherical LiDAR scanner built for permanent indoor or outdoor installation. Low power for solar sites, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, 100–200 ft radius per scanner. Buy for $2,750 or lease for $100 per month.

EOS2 specs & pricing
1

Capture

EOS2 sensors above your piles sweep a full sphere in about three minutes, on a schedule or on demand. Drone and third-party point clouds work too.

2

Measure

Hyperion merges scans from every sensor, filters out equipment and noise, reconstructs the pile surface and flags any gaps in the data.

3

Act

Volumes and tonnages land on your dashboard or in your ERP, with low-stock alerts and history for procurement and month-end reconciliation.

Hyperion Stockpile Monitoring

Avoid costly mistakes with precise bulk inventory data

From a single sensor to a fully coordinated array, Hyperion generates precise point clouds on demand or at scheduled intervals. Our surface generation algorithm calculates volume and quality-checks every scan, and the visual interface turns complex data into clear answers.

Precise volume, near real time

Manual estimates are error-prone and leave you overstocked or understocked.

Better supply planning

Consistent measurements mean accurate procurement and fewer surprises.

No climbing on piles

Fixed scanners remove the slip, fall and engulfment risk of manual surveys.

Efficient material handling

Cut wasted material, labor hours and inefficient use of storage space.

EOS2 LiDAR Sensor

Long-range 3D scanning at a price that makes permanent installation practical

High-precision stepper motors rotate the EOS2's LiDAR rangefinder through a complete sphere, capturing floors, walls, ceilings and every pile from a single mount. Mount it on a truss inside a dome or on a solar-powered pole in an open yard, then let it scan automatically for Hyperion.

  • Full 360°×180° coverage in about three minutes at 1° angular resolution
  • 100–200 ft radius per scanner (200–400 ft across), with unlimited coverage by merging multiple sensors
  • 12 VDC and 25 mA idle, low enough to run from a solar panel and battery
  • Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, an IP54 enclosure, a standard 3/4" NPT mount, a 1/4"-20 UNC top thread and an eye-safe Class 1 laser

  • I have really enjoyed working with the Altamus team. The LiDar/Hyperion system is a real asset to the industry moving forward, and the whole team-Kyle, Will, Eddy-everyone-really works with you to figure out how to best help each individual business. It's not always easy to install new technology and programs, but this team makes it super easy and user-friendly. And you can always get them on the phone if you need them! Highly recommend!

  • I've had the pleasure of collaborating with Altamus on several successful software integration projects. The STACguard software is very intuitive, and Kyle was able to create several custom features to fit our customer's use. The Altamus team is very practical and is able to draw from a versatile skill set. I would highly recommend the STACguard software and working with their team on any project.
