A Powerhouse Laptop with a Purpose

A coincidence of two events today led me to appreciating the Lenovo #ThinkPad P15 Mobile Workstation.

Lisa Gade of Mobile Tech Review released one of her excellent reviews on the the P15 Mobile workstation. Watching the video its easy to appreciate the quality and benefits of one of these extremely powerful laptops.

These laptops can be built up with hardware specifications that might almost seem impossible to fully utilize to their full potential.

Earlier today I was asked to assist a customer identify a machine to fulfill a requirement a little out of the ordinary. The customer wants to embark on a project of cataloging some unique and historic masonry using photogrammetry.

Photogrammetry is an excellent example of when a machine with extreme performance is required. Photogrammetry is the process of producing 3D Models of objects, buildings or landscapes from tens or hundreds of photographs taken of an object form many angles.

In this customers case they were considering Agisoft Metashape and its system requirements are high. The requirement this customer has with this software would be able to fully utilise the performance capabilities of a P15 with 8 Core Xeon CPU, 128GB RAM, NVidia Quadro Graphics card.

I am interested to see the results once they get underway.
