(API: Rockville, MD/Stuttgart, Germany) -- Automated Precision Inc. has unveiled a revolutionary advancement in laser tracker technology—the world’s first completely wireless, controller-free laser tracker: the Omnitrac 2.

Built on the frame of the API’s Radian tracker, the Omnitrac 2 offers an auto-lock camera and an onboard level sensor and can recapture a lost beam. It operates using absolute distance measurement technology; the Radian augments that with an interferometer.

“The ‘OT2’ as we call it, is a solution that not only addresses accuracy and reliability needs, but also anticipates how our customers work and what their needs are in their environment,” says Kam Lau, the president and founder of Automated Precision Inc. “We have developed a tracker that we feel understands this approach and makes taking measurements as convenient and fast as possible. With this portability and ease of use, we believe the OT2 will bring laser metrology to industries that never considered it before.”
