3.02.01 – Case Study 01 – Aircraft interior scan : NCTech iSTAR : iSTAR Image Management

NCTech iSTAR Image Management

All data was stored on an SD card, which requires the files to be transferred onto a suitable computer for additional post-processing and viewing. I did not try any external hard drives for storage.

The iSTAR does have wifi connectivity for control and viewing over a smartphone, however this function was not evaluated during these tests, mainly due to concerns over battery life / reliability.
