Fast 3D scanner for professionals
2-year warranty | Best 3D scanner under $50,000 by iReviews
This structured-light 3D scanner is the ideal choice for making quick, textured, and accurate 3D models of medium-sized objects such as a human bust, an alloy wheel, or a motorcycle exhaust system. It scans quickly, capturing precise measurements in high resolution.
Light, fast, and versatile, Eva is our most popular scanner and a market leader in handheld 3D scanners. Based on safe-to-use structured-light scanning technology, it is an excellent all-around solution for capturing objects of almost any kind, including objects with black and shiny surfaces.
16 FPS capturing speed
Capturing and simultaneously processing up to an impressive 18 million points per second, Eva also provides high accuracy — up to 0.1 mm.
0.2 mm 3D resolution
Scan in brilliant color and high 3D resolution.
1.3 MP texture resolution
Make full-color 3D replicas of your object.
Artec Eva Premium Pack
Great value for money, this long-term favorite among professionals around the globe can now be purchased as part of an all-inclusive bundle.

Thousands of satisfied customers
Testimonials
Inspection
“Crazy efficient. The rate at which you can capture data is fantastic.”
3D printing
“The resolution is killer. There isn't a scanner at that price range that can capture all the details that we found.”
Manufacturing
“I have tested a lot of scanners. Mantis Vision, Creaform, Faro, NDI, but never used a scanner so easy to use. The speed is outstanding, the accuracy is great.”
Heritage preservation
“In the past, I used other 3D scanner equipment like laser heads mounted on arms and I can say that only Artec technology is able to perform 3D scanning of this kind of artwork on the fly or in hard environmental conditions.”

Customizing, innovating and streamlining a wide range of different industries
Industry-standard handheld 3D scanner
Artec Eva’s ease of use, speed and precision has made it an essential product for a wide range of industries. From rapid prototyping to quality control, CGI to heritage preservation, the automotive industry to forensics, medicine and prosthetics to aerospace, the device is used to customize, innovate and streamline countless forward-thinking industries. Eva was even used to scan Barack Obama and help make the very first 3D portrait of an American president.
Safe to use
Eva uses white structured light technology, making it totally safe for scanning people, as well as inanimate objects.
No targets & calibration. Just point and shoot
No need for preparation, just plug in the scanner and point it around the object as you would with a video camera. Simple.
Tablet and battery compatible for true portability
Link up the 0.85 kg 3D scanner to a tablet and the Artec battery pack, which provides up to 6 hours of power, and you can scan practically anywhere, even in areas where there is no source of electricity.
Bundling and easy integration
For capturing larger 3D objects or for creating an automatic scanning system, several scanners can be bundled and synced together. You can also integrate the scanners into your own customized solutions using the free of charge Artec Scanning SDK.
Powerful hybrid geometry and texture tracking and capture
Eva is able to read both the geometry and color of the object being 3D scanned. As a result, it collects two sets of data by which to track and perform data processing.
Easier, smoother 3D scanning
Let your scanner work for you as you seamlessly capture data from your objects.
Faster processing of 3D data
Artec Studio is packed with tools, features, and algorithms designed to speed up your data processing.
Option to scan with targets
Targets can be easily incorporated into your workflow.
Scan even large, featureless objects using color differentiation
Smooth surfaces can be quickly captured, too.
Achieve best possible results with geometry and texture data combined
No compromise: Geometry and texture data join forces for optimal results.

Got a question about Artec Eva 3D scanner?
-
What is HD Mode for Artec Eva?
HD is a scanning mode powered by artificial intelligence algorithms that allows you to create sharper, cleaner, and far more detailed 3D models with a resolution 2X higher than the original SD data. In HD Mode, a resolution of up to 0.2 mm can be achieved, and your Eva can capture much smaller and thinner elements, hard-to-reach areas, black and shiny surfaces and other parts that were difficult or impossible to capture before. HD Mode is available for Leo and Eva scanners running Artec Studio 15.1 or higher.
Visit here for more information about HD Mode. -
Is Artec Eva safe for scanning people and animals?
Yes! Eva uses white structured light technology, which is absolutely safe for scanning any living creature. To get the best results, make sure that the person or animal holds their pose for the entire scanning process to avoid any artifacts or noise on the final model. Animals, fidgety as they tend to be, are often very tricky to capture so we recommend scanning them while they sleep.

Does Artec Eva need targets or calibration?
No. Eva requires neither targets nor calibration to get started. The scanner uses powerful hybrid geometry and texture tracking to capture the objects in 3D — even those with minimal features. Eva collects two sets of data by which to track and perform processing, which results in much easier, faster, and smoother 3D scanning, as well as faster 3D data processing in comparison to scanners that require targets for scanning.
