Artec 3D Software’s Studio 12 is now much more user-friendly, with about 75% of new features adopted from customer feedback. A great solution for beginners requiring guidance in the intricacies of 3D scanning, as well as experienced professionals who want to improve their 3D workflow.
There’s growing interest in 3D scanning the world’s most precious artifacts, but it’s the ability to also 3D print in full color with stunning detail that truly completes the cycle of sharing these pieces without constraints.
The new Stratasys J750 full color, multi-material 3D printer might be a perfect fit to easily re-create the stunning beauty of the original artifacts.
“Now, a relative novice can produce a 3D scan and turn it into a viable model in minutes,” said the company. “It’s virtually impossible to tell the difference between a 3D model created using Artec Studio 11’s Autopilot mode, and one that was created manually by an expert user,” said Artyom Yukhin, Artec 3D President and CEO. “By making the process more intuitive, we’re making the integration of 3D scanning easier. With Artec’s advanced algorithms built into the system, users can create a professional-grade 3D model in a matter of minutes.”
In this post we are going to comment a new product from an entrepreneurial technology company that has the potential to open up 3D printing by providing consumers an easy access to mobile 3D scanning technology.
We are talking about itSeez3D, an application that allows anyone with an iPad and the Structure Sensor to transform his/her iPad into a mobile 3D scanner to create 3D models using objects they see around them.
The new technology provides a convenient tool for the 3D printing fans, facilitating color scans within a couple of minutes. The result is both amazing and spooky as a fully rendered 3D bust of a real person that you can spin around with your fingers, and even pinch to zoom on the screen.
With Itseez’s app and the sensor, you can scan any object, or even a human head quickly and easily, and then either send the scan through email as an attached .ply or .obj file, or upload it into SketchFab, a browser-based 3D design viewer and online portfolio.
