3D Models

Just a few minutes of scanning was enough to capture a significant portion of the frame’s geometry for a vivid example of what HD Mode is all about.

Motorcycle wheel HD • Eva • HD

Scanned with Artec Eva, two common scanning challenges were overcome: Black surfaces, and shiny objects.

Ornate wooden doors HD • Eva • HD

These elaborately-crafted wooden doors were scanned with an Eva in merely a handful of minutes. Since the resulting 3D model was destined for use in a movie, the doors’ many intricate carvings needed to pass close visual inspection.

Patchwork chair • Leo • HD

Can you capture color? With the new Leo, texture stands out vibrantly and bold, while fine lines and surfaces are accurately captured for a true-to-life 3D model.

Radiator grille HD • Leo • HD

With noise levels at an absolute minimum, holes become that much easier to scan, as can be seen here.

Snowmobile • Leo • HD

Just one look at this detail-rich 3D model of a snowmobile gives you an idea of how challenging the original object could have been to 3D scan.

Tripod • Eva • HD

Fine lines and sharp edges have always been tricky to scan but with the new HD Mode, those difficult areas are hardly the challenge they used to be.

Wooden chair HD • Leo • HD

The chair’s crisp edges along its cross rails, legs, and stiles, together with its precise interfaces among components, called for a high degree of precision.

Bat-eared fox skull • Space Spider

This small and fragile skull of a bat-eared fox was scanned with Artec Space Spider. While the model looks complicated, there were no challenging areas to scan.

California office chair • Leo

What appears to be a normal, everyday office chair, plucked from the glass and steel confines of a typical high-tech office in sunny California, serves as a fine example of capturing modern furniture with Artec Leo.

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.

Christmas Bear • Leo

Now, if this hyper-realistic 3D model of an adorable bear doesn’t conjure thoughts of a jolly Christmas, what will?

Church façade • Combo

Team Artec is constantly putting 3D scanners through all sorts of tests to see how well they handle a wide range of objects, as well as to delineate the best path to follow for delivering the most accurate results. One such test project is showcased here on this page.

Classic chair • Eva

An elegant upholstered chair. A fairly complicated object to scan — the polished black wood and the thin back and arms required a special approach.

Classic side table • Eva

A small bedside table, quickly scanned by Artec Eva in three scans. The thin legs might have been a challenge if they had not been scanned in front of a background (the wall and floor). Otherwise, a very easy to scan piece of furniture.

Copper key • Micro

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

Crankshaft • Combo

We used Artec Space Spider’s exceptionally high resolution and Artec Leo’s large field of view & high scanning speed to create a remarkably precise model from the combined raw data.

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.

Damaliscus Korrigum • Eva

A beautiful skull of an African antelope, captured with Eva in two scans: the front and the back. These were then automatically aligned in Artec Studio.

Doom combat scene • Combo

The craftsman who created this feast for the eyes definitely put a great deal of effort into their work. So did Artec Space Spider and Eva, the two handheld 3D scanners which were used to capture everything down to the finest features of this geometry-rich object in order to make the 3D model look as impressive as the original work of art, inspired by Doom, the epic shooter.

Dragon • Space Spider

A plastic figurine of fantasy dragon. It was made in black plastic, but no scanning spray was needed, since plastic was mat.

Drain Weasel wand connector • Micro

Easily captured with the desktop high-resolution 3D scanner Artec Micro, this tiny plastic wand connector section of a Drain Weasel would be a challenge for many other 3D scanners.

Dual-clutch gearbox • Leo

Yes, this is one of those dandy not-so-little devices that no one wants to hear their mechanic talking about, especially not while he’s rubbing his hands together and has a certain little gleam in his eye.

Electrical outlet • Micro

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.
