From specimen to measurable data

Artec Studio Pro takes you from scan to measurement, comparison and shareable models.

Artec Studio Pro
  1. Scan without contact

    Capture specimens, artifacts or people with no markers or powder on the object. Micro II runs automatically; the handheld scanners show coverage live.

  2. Build an accurate model

    Artec Studio fuses the scans into a watertight, full-color mesh. Data from several Artec scanners merges in one project.

  3. Measure and compare

    Take distances, sections and thickness maps, or compare samples with each other or with design files using deviation maps.

  4. Share and archive

    Export OBJ, PLY, STL or E57 for archives, VR lessons, online collections and 3D-printed replicas.

Real scan data

Real specimen scans, unedited

A human skeleton, a giraffe skull, a lobster, a coin and a precision part: fragile specimens and fine relief, captured without contact.

Results from research teams

Relief pottery shards were scanned with Spider II, which picks up dents, molded features and even fingerprints, to compare stamp motifs. The shards matched, and the data will feed AI classification.

Sugarcane-based building slabs were scanned with Leo and converted to CAD. The measured shrinkage led to an improved recipe with consistent properties.

Corroded steel bridge girders were scanned with Leo from bucket cranes to map remaining thickness and train an AI that predicts load capacity. Ultrasound gave one point per 3 minutes.

Questions about 3D scanning for research

Which scanner suits my research?

Micro II for small samples down to 5 µm, Spider II for fine detail on artifacts, fossils and specimens, Eva for people and medium-size objects, and Leo for large or immovable objects and fieldwork.

Can I scan fragile or borrowed specimens?

Yes. All four scanners work without targets, so nothing is stuck on the object, and Spider II, Eva and Leo never touch it. Micro II moves small objects automatically, which minimizes handling.

Is the data accurate enough for measurement?

Micro II reaches up to 5 µm with 2 µm repeatability, certified to ISO 12836; Spider II reaches 0.05 mm, and Eva and Leo 0.1 mm. Artec Studio adds distance, section, thickness and deviation tools.

Can we scan people for medical or human research?

Yes. Eva uses white structured light that is safe for people, and Spider II is eye-safe and contact-free. One research group measured breast volume with Eva with an error below 1%.

Is there academic pricing?

Yes. Education Packages for Leo, Eva and Spider II are for schools, universities and research institutes, with an Artec Studio license plus free classroom licenses, 2 years of upgrades and Artec Care. Request a quote to confirm eligibility.

Which software do I need?

Artec Studio Pro for scanning, processing and analysis, as a yearly plan or a lifetime license. Data from all Artec scanners merges in one project and exports to OBJ, PLY, STL, E57 and CAD formats.

Can I compare samples with each other or over time?

Yes. Artec Studio maps deviations between two scans, or between a scan and a design file, and adds distance, section and thickness tools. Full-resolution scans can be archived and compared again later to monitor change.

Can I take the scanner into the field?

Yes. Leo is wireless, with its computer and battery on board, and works outdoors in daylight. Eva weighs under 1 kg and runs up to 6 hours on its optional battery pack, with a tablet, at dig sites and in the field.
