3d model new

Plastic can reflect light directed at it. That’s simple yet very useful info for someone who wants to have an electrical outlet 3D scanned.

Screw • Micro

Small object — big challenge. How do you capture the thread of this 10 mm long screw using a 3D scanner?

Troll • Leo

This ordinary office Troll was scanned with an Artec Leo 3D scanner. In exchange for the promise of some meaty morsels, the troll agreed to pose for the scanning by leaning on a chair that was later removed during post-processing in Artec Studio.

Lion statue • Leo

This lion is one of two nearly identical bronze animals prowling alongside the steps of a town hall. Mounted on a pedestal, it was a bit hard to reach, but not for Leo — its namesake!

Car • Leo

This 3D model was created via a synergy of 3D data from an Artec Leo combined with texture from photogrammetry.

Alligator tail • Eva

They say that Nature is the perfect designer, and if you could ask Mr. Stubbs about this, he’d probably agree with you.

Crocodile statue • Leo

Part of an outdoor fountain basin, this 3D model of a croc was created with the Artec Leo 3D scanner and the powerful Artec Studio software.

Car body • Leo

Taking only 20 minutes to scan the whole car, and just under one and a half hours to process the captured 3D data, this highly accurate 3D model was ready in under two hours from start to finish.

Fountain basin • Leo

Leo was able to scan this fountain’s 7-meter basin in just under fifty minutes, with no need for additional preparation or the use of extra features to improve the scanner’s tracking.

Copper key • Micro

A copper key scanned with Artec Micro. The key had to be sprayed due to its reflective surface.

Plastic bolt • Micro

Despite its complex geometry and reflective surface, this 1.5 cm plastic bolt was captured using the ultra-precise Artec Micro in just three scans.

Metal nut • Micro

A metal nut, just over 15 mm, easily scanned with Artec Micro in just two scans. Unlike handheld scanners, Micro was able to scan this piece without the need for any additional features or background.

Pipe bend • Micro

A pipe bend, scanned with Artec Micro. It took only two scans using the simple trajectory to get the full shape of the pipe.

Plaster cast of teeth • Micro

This object is considered as «large» for trajectory purposes. Although we used only a «simple» type of trajectory, with fewer frames, all of the intricate curvatures were successfully captured.

Metal cutting blade • Spider II

This cutting blade was a great training instrument for scanning thin objects.

Turbine • Spider II

This small turbine was scanned in three passes using a rotating table — this enabled the operator to easily capture all the curves from different angles with less hand motion.

The Kensington Runestone • Combo

Eva was used to scan the entire stone, resulting in a superb digital replica, while Space Spider scanned the runes themselves, for a deeper view of the engraving marks and the surrounding stone, after which all scans were combined into one final model.

Leather bag • Spider II

This highly precise 3D model of a mid-size leather bag was made using 3D data from an Artec Space Spider and photogrammetry, with over 450 pictures taken during a period of 15 minutes.

Sneaker • Spider II

This highly precise 3D model of a sneaker was made using 3D data from an Artec Space Spider and photogrammetry, with over 300 pictures taken during a period of 15 minutes.

Stegosaurus skeleton • Spider II

The Stegosaurus from the Denver museum of the Nature and Science is more than 26 feet long and over nine feet tall.

Statue Dragonfly tamer • Eva

A bronze statue of a fairytale boy taming a giant dragonfly, made by famous sculptor Katib Mamedov. Dragonfly wings were a challenge since there was little surface on them, and no background to make it easier.

Mushroom (pleurotus eryngii) • Spider II

This pleurotus eryngii mushroom was very easy to scan due to its size and thickness.

Motorbike • Combo

This motorcycle was scanned with both Eva and Space Spider. Eva allowed for fast and easy acquisition of the overall shape, while Space Spider was used to scan the intricate geometry of the wheels and the sides.

Bovine heart • Spider II

The main difficulty with scanning internal organs is that they are soft and change shape when flipped, making it difficult to combine scans made from different sides.
