Thuban Lodestar 3D Scanner

Thuban Lodestar is a professional data analysis platform designed for 3D visualization and analysis of data collected from gradiometer, magnetometer, and detector systems. The app processes sensor data received from supported external devices, helping users interpret field data more clearly, more quickly, and more efficiently.

Working with supported devices over Bluetooth, Thuban Lodestar brings together powerful tools in one platform, including surface scanning, live/sonar scanning, multi-sensor data analysis, detector mode, 3D volumetric visualization, augmented reality-assisted visualization, advanced calibration, and CSV data analysis.

Thuban Lodestar is not a search device. It is a software platform that processes and analyzes data from external sensors. It does not replace physical hardware; instead, it enables advanced visualization and interpretation of the data collected by the device.

Why Thuban Lodestar?

Thuban Lodestar was developed to help device manufacturers reduce software development costs and provide advanced analysis tools to their users through a single mobile platform.
The app exchanges data via Bluetooth only with supported devices from authorized partner companies.

Phone Magnetometer Support

Support for the phone’s built-in magnetometer (compass) is provided so users can try the app’s analysis infrastructure and 3D visualization tools for free.

This feature:

is not designed for professional search purposes
is not an alternative to external hardware
does not guarantee depth or target detection

For professional field measurements and precise analysis, the use of external hardware is recommended.

Supported Scan Types

Surface Scan (Grid Scan)
The area is divided into grids, data is collected, and measurements are visualized as a 3D heat map.

Live / Sonar Scan
Data received over Bluetooth is displayed in real time, enabling instant field monitoring.

Multi-Sensor Scan
Single-sensor and multi-sensor data structures can be analyzed simultaneously.

Detector Mode
Provides real-time audio feedback based on changes in sensor data, making anomaly tracking easier.

Key Analysis Features
3D volumetric data visualization
10 different color scales
9 different interpolation methods
3-axis vector analysis
augmented reality-assisted visualization
advanced magnetometer calibration
depth analysis tools with interpretation support based on soil parameters
CSV data logging and analysis
Important Information

Analysis results may vary depending on the device used, sensor structure, ground conditions, and field environment.
Thuban Lodestar visualizes data and makes analysis easier, but it does not directly and definitively classify a value as “metal” or “void.” For more reliable interpretation, comparative field analysis is recommended.

Who Is It For?
detector manufacturers
magnetometer and gradiometer manufacturers
professional field teams
users who need advanced data analysis and 3D visualization

With its powerful 3D analysis infrastructure, advanced visualization options, Bluetooth device integration, and professional data processing tools, Thuban Lodestar delivers a comprehensive mobile analysis solution.
