3D Scanner Software

Desktop Application Development

3D scanner software is a vital companion to the physical scanner itself. It processes the raw data captured by the scanner (points, depth information) and transforms it into a usable 3D model.

FEATURES

Cleans Up the Mess

Removes unwanted noise from the scan data for an accurate model.

Builds the Mesh

Creates a digital 3D mesh representing the object’s surface.

Fixes Holes

Fills in any gaps or missing data points in the scan.

Exports the Model

Saves the 3D model in formats usable by other software (STL, OBJ, etc.).

Bonus Features (sometimes)

Real-time scan preview, measurement tools, advanced editing options.

Edits and Adjusts

Lets you smooth, sharpen, or refine the mesh for a clean look.

INDUSTRIES

Manufacturing

Quality Control: Software allows for detailed inspection of scanned parts, identifying defects and ensuring they meet design specifications. Reverse Engineering: Existing products can be scanned to create digital models for replication or improvement.

Healthcare

Prosthetics and Orthotics: 3D scanner software helps create custom-made prosthetics and orthotics with a perfect fit for patients, improving comfort and functionality.
Surgical Planning:Scanned data of patients' bodies can be used for virtual surgery planning, allowing for more precise and efficient procedures.

Construction

Building Information Modeling (BIM): 3D scanner software supports the creation of digital building models (BIM) by processing scans of existing structures or construction sites. This facilitates better planning, renovation, and facility management.

Entertainment and Media

Character Creation: Actors and objects can be scanned to generate 3D models for use in video games, animation, and special effects, creating realistic and immersive experiences.
Product Design: Scanned real-world objects can be integrated into digital designs for products like furniture or consumer electronics, ensuring perfect fit and form.

Archaeology and Cultural Preservation

3D Documentation of Artifacts: Scanned data is used to create digital archives of historical artifacts and monuments, enabling preservation and virtual exploration for future generations.

SOFTWARE

Scanner GUIs (interfaces) help you control your scanner and view 3D models.

Connect & Manage: Choose the scanner and see if it’s connected.

Scan Controls: Start, pause, or cancel scans, sometimes with different modes (high-res, fast scan).

3D Model View: See a live preview (on some scanners) or the final model after scanning. You can also rotate and zoom for better viewing.

Extras: Settings to adjust scan quality or file format, and export buttons to save your 3D model in various formats.

RecFusion and QT

If you have a compatible depth sensor and prioritize a user-friendly experience with real-time feedback, RecFusion can be a useful tool for your 3D scanning projects. And Qt is a cross-platform framework that is used for the development of GUIs and applications. It runs across operating systems like Linux, Windows, iOS, and Android. Qt enables simultaneous work within one framework using such tools as Qt Creator, Qt Quick, Qt Design Studio, and others.
