For quality inspection, Artec Studio Pro compares the scan with CAD over the full surface, not at a handful of points, and maps the deviations. 2D sections, thickness maps and distance measurements complete the toolset, and measurements export as CSV, DXF or XML.
For formal inspection reports, the data goes in one click to Geomagic Control X or PolyWorks Inspector. Artec Metrology Kit runs as a plugin in Artec Studio, so photogrammetry and scanning share one environment, and Artec Twins brings scan-to-CAD comparison to site-scale data.
Software can only report what the scanner measures, so accuracy starts with the hardware. Artec Point II offers up to 0.02 mm accuracy accredited to ISO 17025. For Artec Neo, each unit is verified to VDI/VDE 2634 Part 3 in Artec’s ISO/IEC 17025-accredited lab. Micro II accuracy is certified to ISO 12836.
Artec’s AI Photogrammetry makes detailed, textured models from photos or video taken with a smartphone, digital camera, drone or microscope, for objects from tiny parts to whole landscapes. It is the core of Artec Studio Lite, which works without a 3D scanner, and is included in Studio Pro and Twins.
Photogrammetry produces a textured mesh you can edit, measure, autosurface and export to CAD, 3D printing or modeling software. Gaussian Splats are for photorealistic presentation. Artec Twins keeps point clouds, meshes and Gaussian Splats of the same data in one workspace, so you switch between precise measurement and photorealistic walkthroughs for stakeholders who can’t visit the site.
AI also works inside Artec hardware: Leo’s AI-powered HD Mode handles dark, shiny and thin features, and Jet flies AI-assisted drone missions with 360° collision avoidance. When you need metrology-grade inspection or reverse engineering rather than a visual model, Studio Pro adds 3D scanning with Artec scanners.
Artec Studio Pro. It supports Artec structured-light, laser and LiDAR scanners and the Metrology Kit, and Smart Fusion combines data from several scanners in one project. Data from Artec Jet, the mobile mapper, is processed in Artec Twins. Artec Studio Lite does not support 3D scanning.
Yes. AI Photogrammetry turns photos or video from a smartphone, camera, drone or microscope into textured 3D models; it is the core of Artec Studio Lite and is also included in Studio Pro and Twins. Choose Lite Business for paid work and Lite Individual for personal projects.
Yes. It compares scans with CAD, maps deviations over the full surface and adds 2D sections, thickness maps and distance measurements, with export to CSV, DXF or XML. For formal inspection reports, send the data in one click to Geomagic Control X or PolyWorks Inspector.
Yes. Studio Pro fits CAD primitives, autosurfaces free-form areas and exports STEP, IGES or X_T, with direct export to SOLIDWORKS, Design X and Control X. Meshes export as OBJ, STL, PLY and other common formats for 3D printing and modeling.
A yearly plan includes every major update and new algorithm while it is active, plus scripting in Studio Pro. A lifetime license is a one-time payment for permanent access to the version you buy, with minor updates only. Studio Pro and Twins offer both; Studio Lite is monthly or yearly.
Artec 3D offers a free 30-day trial of Artec Studio Pro and of Artec Twins; the Twins trial does not save or export. To see the software on your own scans or site data, book a demo with an Artec 3D expert.
