In the world of advanced geospatial intelligence, few companies are pushing boundaries like Emesent. Founded in 2018, Emesent has quickly become a global leader in autonomous LiDAR mapping and data analytics, transforming how industries like mining, infrastructure, forestry, and public safety capture and interpret spatial data

The Emesent Product Lineup: Innovation in Every Scan

At the heart of Emesent’s offering is the Hovermap Series, a suite of smart mobile scanning units that combine cutting-edge SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) algorithms with autonomous flight capabilities. These systems are designed to operate in GPS-denied environments—such as underground mines, dense forests, and complex industrial sites—delivering survey-grade point clouds with sub-centimeter accuracy 

Key Features of Hovermap ST and ST-X:

Robust Design: IP65 weather-sealed, lightweight, and built for harsh environments 

Versatile Deployment: Mountable on drones, vehicles, backpacks, or handheld setups.

High-Performance LiDAR: Up to 300 meters range and over 1 million points per second.

Autonomous Navigation: Smart waypoint and pilot assist modes for safe, efficient mapping.

Live Data Streaming: Real-time point cloud previews via the Hovermap app.

Beyond Hovermap, Emesent offers powerful software tools like Aura for point cloud processing and Commander for mission planning—streamlining workflows from data capture to actionable insights 

Real-World Impact

Emesent’s technology is being used across the globe—from mapping underground stope environments in mining operations to quantifying biodiversity in forests and inspecting critical infrastructure. Their solutions are helping teams reduce risk, improve safety, and make faster, smarter decisions 

The John Barry Connection: Precision Starts with Connectivity

In high-performance environments—whether it’s autonomous mapping, industrial inspection, field robotics, or environmental monitoring—reliable connectivity is non-negotiable. That’s why John Barry Sales proudly supplies LEMO connectors, trusted worldwide for their precision engineering, robust construction, and secure push-pull self-latching system.

LEMO connectors are designed to perform in the harshest conditions: dust, moisture, vibration, and extreme temperatures. Their compact form factor and high pin density make them ideal for applications where space is limited but performance is critical. From powering sensors and transmitting data to linking control systems and communication devices, LEMO connectors ensure stable, uninterrupted operation.

Whether you’re integrating advanced LiDAR systems like Emesent’s Hovermap, deploying remote sensing equipment, or building rugged field kits, our connector solutions provide the reliability and durability your mission demands.

Supporting Innovation with Reliability

As Emesent continues to redefine autonomous mapping, John Barry Sales is proud to support their journey with premium connectivity solutions. Our partnership ensures that the technology driving smarter, safer, and more efficient mapping is backed by components built to perform.
