Features Our Team Loves About Artec Cloud [And What It Means For You]

Now that our team has spent more time using this online platform on a daily basis, we set out to figure out what features we love the most about it.

Get Scan Data Faster

Artec Cloud uses surfels, or surface elements, an alternative to polygonal modeling. Surfels increase the speed at which data is loaded, so even when you’re working on the web with your projects stored on a server, your data is within moments available for you. Data is also presented in a new, cleaner look. Any noise captured is smoother, which immediately gives you a better understanding of the scan quality.

Before With Surfels

Compatibility

  • Artec Leo

    Upload your projects directly to Artec Cloud without needing SD cards or cables and process the scan data without Artec Studio!

  • Artec Eva / Space Spider

    Using these handheld 3D scanners, upload files to Artec Cloud from Artec Studio. Then, you and your team members can download projects from Artec Cloud onto the computer when they need to!

Artec Cloud works on all major browsers, and essentially runs on any operating system (Windows, Apple macOS, Linux, etc.)

That means if you have a computer with a supported Internet browser, it will work. Even if you have a Mac, Artec Cloud will work!

Attach Images for Better Communication

Attach Images for Better Communication

If you or your client has a visual of what they’d like to be scanned, an image can easily be attached into your project, too. Send the project and an invitation to your client or 3D service provider, it’s that simple.

Import and Share

Import and Share

If you are on a Collaboration or Processing plan, you’ll be able to upload and download 3D data and models. Supported files include Artec Studio data formats and popular 3D model formats such as OBJ, PLY, STL, and WRL. Once uploaded, your data is available online immediately, and you’ll be able to view it right away. If you’re working with one Collaboration account and one or numerous Viewer accounts, you’ll be able to share your work and your colleagues will be able to view and comment.

You can process as many as you like at a time, up to 20 projects per month.With your CPU, GPU, and memory left unoccupied, you’re free to work on other tasks as Artec Cloud does all the hard work—or just come back to find your projects processed and ready to go.

Manual Mode

In the Manual mode, you’re presented with five stages of processing: Align, Prepare Scan, Make Model, Adjust Model, and Export. Once you processed the 3D models, you can be export with your chosen level of granularity in OBJ, STL, PLY, or VRML, while high-resolution screenshots take the form of JPG, PNG, or WEBP. Once that’s done, you’re ready to share, export, or send it.

Erase Tool

Manual Editing: Erase Tool

With the Erase Tool, remove unnecessary or unwanted data from your 3D scanning scene to create crisp, clean 3D models.

Position Tool
