3DScanCo's Artec 3D Scanners use 3D videocameras that capture a three-dimensional image in each frame and then combinethem automatically into a single mesh. The scanning process allows you to walkaround the object while continuously "videoing" it from 360 degrees. Thevideo-based scanners' measure speeds of up to 500,000 points per sec makingthem faster than laser scanners and are able to scan moving objects as well asstationary ones. Various models allow digitizing of a broad range of objectsizes, textures and colors. These scanners are portable and can be used forsports, animation, fashion, medical, computer graphics, architecture,prototyping and manufacturing.
Creaform 3D scanners are portable systems designed to scan medium tolarge objects. These systems are portable and are well suited to reverseengineering applications of large products and models.
The 3Shape scanner utilizes automaticdesktop scanning for small objects and is mainly used in the dental, hearingaid and jewelry industries. The systems capture precise three-dimensional dataquickly for items up to 3 cubic inches. The automatic setup speeds productionof complex parts.
