France, March 3 -- Viridien has launched Geolucent - an innovative geoscience-driven machine vision system that provides a breakthrough approach to production rock-face characterization, transforming operational decision-making in mining environments. Geolucent combines quantitative hyperspectral rock composition mapping, overlain on an accurate LIDAR-derived structural representation, to deliver consistent, decision-ready 3D geointelligence, related to mineralogy and geotechnical parameters, in minutes. Designed to operate in complete darkness or low-light conditions, the Geolucent system is remotely controlled and can be mounted on multiple vehicle platforms. With controlled laser illumination, Geolucent removes dependence on ambient ligh...
