The funding will support next-generation capture hardware, AI intelligence, and an open platform. Over 1.5 billion sqm of industrial space have been scanned, with 1,500+ customers, including BMW and Siemens.

The company's technology uses wearable laser scanning systems to create photorealistic digital replicas of factories, plants, and buildings. This allows industrial teams to plan and maintain facilities more efficiently. NavVis has partnerships with major companies such as Nvidia, SAP, and Autodesk, and operates in over 50 countries.

The investment will be used to further develop the company's technology, including the development of next-generation capture hardware and a deeper AI intelligence layer. NavVis aims to create an open platform for the 'physical AI ecosystem'.
