3D Scanner

A 3D scanner will enhance research and learning by enabling students and instructors to convert physical artifacts into 3D digital objects for up-close study and analysis and for sharing with the broader public. CURVE proposes to purchase a 3D scanner and visualization software for creating virtual models of objects for learning and research across disciplines.  An added benefit is that these digital objects can be accessed from anywhere via the web, and are no longer confined to the classroom or laboratory.

NextEngine 3D Scanner - http://www.nextengine.com/

with ScanStudio HD Pro and ScanStudio CAD Tools

Electro-optical architecture and NextEngine algorithms use an array of lasers to scan in parallel.

ScanStudio™ - Software to Scan, Align, Polish, and Fuse 3D Models - high-performance OpenGL 3D viewer.
SolidWorks Integration - Scan inside SolidWorks (Office Premium 2007+)
Native File FormatSolidWorks + NextEngine co-developed native format. No import or export needed.
Standalone UseScan - Studio works outside SolidWorks for creation of standard format scan output files.
Format Options - Scans can be output as STL, OBJ, VRML, XYZ, and PLY files.
File Size - 20MB for typical models, based on 10 facet scans.
Modeling Tools - Assemble views into a model conveniently with built-in Smart Alignment and trim tools.

Minimum System - 2 GHz Dual-core, 3GB RAM, 256MB graphics. Windows XP / Vista 32-bit.
Recommended - Quad-core, 4+ GB RAM, 512+ MB dedicated graphics. Windows 7/8 64-bit.
Interface - USB 2.0 high speed interface. USB cable included.
Power100 - 240 VAC built-in worldwide auto-switching power supply. AC cable included.
Eye Safety - Beam is about 1/1000th brightness of a laser pointer (users should avoid looking into the beam).
Tripod Mount - Stainless steel 1/4 - 20 thread standard screw mount for tripod setups.
Size - Compact 8.8" x 3.6" desktop footprint -10.9" high - approximately 7 lbs.
