We consult on every step of the process to determine the best equipment (hardware and software) for applications related to 3D human body measurement and 3D body scanning.

EQUIPMENT SELECTION PROCESS

We are familiar with all the different methods and technologies that can be employed for the 3D measurement of the different parts of the human body and we know in detail all the products and solutions currently available in the market.
Based on our experience in the field, we first determine the adequate technologies for your application. We then analyze all the products available in the marked and we identify the best solution fulfilling your requirements and fitting your budget.

3D HUMAN BODY MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS

Complete 3D human body measurement systems are usually composed of the three following distinguished components: 3D scanning system (hardware and software for the 3D measurement process), 3D data processing software (for example, 3D editing, 3D modeling) and 3D application software (for example, 3D analysis, 3D visualization).
We consult on the selection process of every component.

3D SCANNERS AND 3D SCANNING SOFTWARE

A multitude of 3D scanning solutions are available in the market, from the general 3D surface scanners, through the dedicated systems (as for example 3D full body scanners, 3D face scanners or 3D foot scanners), to customized solutions designed for specific applications.
Various technologies are employed to gain 3D data; among them, the most employed in this sector are laser scanning, white light scanning, photogrammetry, image processing and touch probing.
We know all of them in detail and we assist you in the process of selecting the best 3D scanner and 3D scanning software that fit your applications, requirement and budget.

3D SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS

3D body scanning technology is exploited for various applications in different fields, as medicine, apparel, beauty, ergonomics, anthropometry, sport, biometry, computer graphics, arts and communication. Dedicated 3D software solutions that use data acquired by 3D body scanners were developed for specific application fields. A short list of examples includes software for: body surface and volume analysis, body size extraction, body shape tracking, statistical analysis of large group of persons, virtual-try-on, virtual-make-over, made-to-measure garment ad shoes production, ergonomic simulation, plastic surgery simulation, face recognition, face expression simulation, generation of avatars.

Artec MH and MHT

Hand-held 3D scanners

Hometrica Consulting - Dr. Nicola D'Apuzzo, ArtecMHT

Scanning in real-time. Easy, quick and accurate.

FEATURES:

The Artec 3D Scanner works just like a regular video camera, but instead of a normal image, the result is a three-dimensional one with speeds of up to 15 surfaces per second.

The scanning process is extremely straightforward: simply walk around the object and scan it from various angles, while the accompanying software combines all the scanned images into one 3D surface model. There is no need to place markers over the object. The system uses unique geometry of each object to properly correlate the scanned images and to join them into one 3D image in real time (during the actual scanning process).

The Artec MH and MHT 3D Scanners are easily hold in hand thank to the ergonomic design and the very light weight (1.4kg).

Two versions of the hand-held scanner are available: Artec MH acquires only the 3D shape of the object and Artec MHT acquires also color/texture of the object.

Along with the scanner, the client receives specialized software which guides him through the entire scanning process and all the way through the refinement of the final image.
