Transporting heavy laser scanners by hand to various scan positions during operation is a very strenuous and time consuming process as a typical scanning process requires up to four scan positions in order to generate a 3D image accurately. Hence, the objective of this project is to build a remote control tripod dolly that will ease the transport of heavy scanners (up to 4.2kg) to multiple scan locations in a less strenuous but more efficient way than mounting and demounting from tripod and carrying it by hand. In this thesis, three tripod dolly designs are formed and the best dolly design is selected based on Pugh's Concept Evaluation Matrix and Finite Element Analysis. A small-scale dolly prototype is also developed and tested to study the performance of the actual proposed remote control tripod dolly. The result of the test proves that the hardware of the tripod dolly is fully functional and the actual tripod dolly would be able to meet the requirements and objectives.
