Key Features Summary :

Scan Any Size

Matter and Form THREE lets you scan an astonishing range of object sizes, from a coin to a car, with metrology-level accuracy and resolution. THREE’s unique ChromaSpec™ technology uses the full spectrum of visible light to perfectly capture geometry and any color.

Standalone Self-Computing

THREE is the world’s first 3D scanner with fully onboard software.

✔️ Runs in any modern web browser
✔️ Runs on any operating system
✔️ Works with ANY device that supports Chrome, Safari, Firefox or Edge web browsers.
✔️ Scan projects stored in its internal storage

No Internet Needed

Everything you need for incredible 3D scanning is self-contained in THREE. THREE connects to your network with WIFI or Ethernet and provides software through its built-in web server.

✔️ No software to install
✔️ No cloud service
✔️ No subscription fee
✔️ No internet connection required

Full API and Edge Computing

THREE is a fully-functioning edge computing device with popular programming tools integrated. Supported by open source projects and a full API, you can develop your own computer vision and scanning projects, and THREE will run them for you.

Technical Specifications

THREE is packed with cutting-edge optical technology including an ultra-bright MEMS mirror based DLP projector and two Sony 13 megapixel optical sensors. THREE has its own CPU and integrated GPU, and it stores and maintains your scan projects within its built-in 16GB memory.

Common Questions:

How does THREE work?

THREE features focusable 13 MP Sony optical sensors, a built-in CPU and GPU, a state-of-the-art DLP projector, and WIFI/ethernet connectivity.

Extraordinary, built-in software takes full advantage of THREE’s hardware to capture and process 33 micron scans in about 20 seconds.

THREE’s unique focusing cameras accurately “see” everything– so you get incredible scan results from the tiny embossing on a coin all the way to a whole car engine.

How is THREE different from other 3D scanners?

Unlike most scanners, THREE is a standalone, self-computing 3D scanner with built-in software that does all the scanning, processing and storage on the device itself. This means it can work with any computer, Chromebook, iPad or tablet.

THREE also gives you the highest-quality scan results across a truly extraordinary range of object sizes, where most other scanners are heavily limited in size and distance.

What kind of computer do I need to use THREE?

THREE is the only 3D scanner that will work with ANY computer, iPad, Mac, tablet, Windows, Chromebook or Linux. All you need is a web browser, because THREE’s standalone, self-computing software is built-in.

3D scanning with THREE means no software to install, no yearly software licensing fee, no SAAS, no cloud, no expensive video card and no expensive computer required, and no worries that an operating system update will break everything.

With THREE, you’re ALWAYS ready to scan.

Why is THREE more expensive than some other 3D Scanners?

Cheap 3D scanners come with poorly written software that makes it difficult and frustrating to scan. THREE is built from the ground up to be powerful and easy to use, and is featured in professional labs and public schools around the world.

Cheap 3D scanners lack precision and accuracy. THREE can capture details as small as the embossing on a coin.

Cheap 3D scanners need expensive computers just to work. THREE is a stand alone device that can use the computer or tablet you already own.

What are THREE’s scan speed, resolution, & scan distance?

Capture time: 4 seconds.
Processing time: 10-15 seconds.
Projector frame rate: 60 fps.
Scan object distance to camera: 220 mm to 700 mm (8.66 inches to 27.56 inches).
Resolution: 37 microns @ 220 mm, 65 microns @ 400 mm, 114 microns @ 700mm.
Z-accuracy: 33 microns @ 220 mm, 150 microns @ 400 mm, 400 microns @ 700 mm.
Minimum capturable feature size: 0.2 mm (0.0078 in).
Maximum capturable object size: 2 m cubed (70 cubic feet)

Isn’t blue light the best? How does ChromaSpec™ work?

Contrary to popular belief, blue light doesn’t automagically deliver higher-quality scans. Blue light scanners struggle to capture certain colors, so scanning spray is almost always required.

THREE’s breakthrough ChromaSpec algorithm uses the full color spectrum to detect and process different-colored areas of the object.

With THREE, most of the time you won’t need to worry about scan sprays. Instead of messing around, trying to get the settings just right, THREE lets you quickly get the scan you need, and keep your project moving forward.

Tell me about the API. Does that cost more?

THREE has a free and included built-in API and on-board processing, so if you want to get into some really cool vision system hacking, it’s ready to go.

Example projects and documentation are available in Github.

3D scanning APIs are really expensive, but when you get THREE, the API is included and it will always be up-to-date!
