Our Ambassador Digitize Designs is running a live Artec Jet demo in Greenville, SC on May 7, 11 AM – 1 PM EST at Lefty's West End Tavern.

Jet is a SLAM-based mobile LiDAR system that delivers up to 10 mm mapping accuracy without GPS, deployable handheld, drone-mounted, or vehicle-integrated for large-scale site capture.

Ray II and Leo will also be on-site, with the team available to walk through how these tools fit into your existing workflows.

Portugal's Navy, Army, and other military branches recently gathered at CODI for a hands-on session on 3D Technologies for Defence.

The day covered the full workflow: from 3D printing materials and processes through to live scanning demos with Artec Spider II, Artec Leo, Artec Jet, and Artec Micro.

Thank you to CODI for putting this together and to everyone who attended!

37 min webinar on Artec Spider II in product design: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IoGZdnwBuQA

Saucony's Luca Ciccone and Isaac Neaves share how they use Artec Spider II 3D scanning to bring back classic sneaker designs. Joined by Artec 3D's Paul Hanaphy, this deep-dive explores how 3D scanning fits into real design and engineering workflows to shorten development time and reduce physical sampling.

Large open spaces like ice rinks can be deceptively difficult to digitize. They may appear simple, but overhead steel framework, lighting rigs, and ventilation ducts create a dense web of geometry that ground-based scanners can barely see, let alone capture accurately. That’s why Artec Jet was deployed to document these overhead structures without any need for scaffolding, lifts, or time-consuming tripod-based capture.

Mounted to a drone, Jet flew the underside of the roof in a single autonomous mission, using AI-powered navigation and obstacle avoidance. Active scan time was 15 minutes. Total mission duration including setup was 25 minutes. The capture spans painted steel, ice, and concrete in one continuous pass, with color from the action camera mount aligned to the point cloud during processing in Artec Twins.

Deliverable: a 6 GB colorized point cloud in LAZ format. Download dataset here: https://ow.ly/8x2c50YRbjP

Following the East Coast launch last week, Artec Jet is heading to San Francisco!

Our partner Hawk Ridge Systems is bringing Jet to the 91st Annual Meeting of the Society for American Archaeology, the largest gathering of archaeologists of the Americas. Find the team at Booth 708, Hilton San Francisco Union Square.

Why Jet for archaeology: high-density point clouds across excavation sites, cave systems, and heritage structures, including locations where GPS coverage is limited or unavailable.

Hawk Ridge will also be running the wider Artec lineup, with each scanner mapped to a specific stage of archaeological work:
◼️Leo, wireless handheld for in-situ documentation of artifacts and excavation units
◼️Spider II, 0.05 mm resolution for lithics, ceramics, and skeletal remains
◼️Ray II, long-range LiDAR for monuments and large heritage sites
◼️Micro II, desktop scanning for coins, jewelry, and fossils
◼️Point, target-based handheld laser scanner for metrology-grade capture

Bring a benchmark object or artifact to the booth and put the scanners through their paces with the team.

First hands-on Artec Jet event on the East Coast happened yesterday in Maryland!

Our partner Direct Dimensions, Inc. hosted the launch at Hatch X. Backpack configuration, tablet in hand, scanning the facility floor in real time. The full Artec 3D lineup was there too: Leo, Ray II, Spider II, Micro II, Point. But the Jet backpack was the thing nobody wanted to take off.

Thanks to the Direct Dimensions team for putting this together and to everyone who came out.

No blueprint. No documentation. No supplier. Just a part that needs to exist again.

That's where 3D scanning fits into reverse engineering. Compared to manual measurements or working from incomplete drawings, scanning captures complex surfaces faster and with less operator error. It gives you a reliable digital reference to build from.

And the hardware scales to the job. Components that demand accuracy well beyond a millimeter. Full-sized vehicles. Structures as large as aircraft hangars.

Artec 3D offers scanners and scan-to-CAD software for reverse engineering at every scale. Find out which solution fits your project 👉 https://ow.ly/rtwR50Ywo3F

In the spotlight: 4С Creative Cad Cam Consultants x Artec Leo

Scanning a vessel hull in a workshop. Overhead positioning, limited angles, and the operator needs to move freely around the object. This is where Leo's fully wireless, standalone design comes in. The team at 4C scanned the hull overhead at arm's length, right within Leo's recommended working distance of 0.8 - 1.2 m, capturing outer geometry and onboard mechanical components with no cables and no external computer on site.

Inside the workflow: MAX-DYWANIK x Artec Leo

Poland-based Max-Dywanik produces custom-fit car mats for nearly 2,300 vehicle models. They bring Artec Leo on site to capture vehicle floors and use the scan data as a base for production. In this session they scanned multiple vehicles, including the Lamborghini Revuelto in frame.

❗Last call before Thursday.

Physical prototyping is expensive and wasteful, and there's constant pressure to move faster without sacrificing accuracy. 3D scanning is changing how product teams shorten development cycles, reduce physical sampling, and keep design and engineering in sync from day one.

Join to see how Saucony applies this in three ways: digitizing archival designs from the 1970s for modern reissue, enabling creative collaborations through physical-to-digital capture, and optimizing performance product geometry through R&D scanning.

Ground robots can access confined, hazardous, or hard-to-reach spaces without putting anyone at risk. Artec Jet captures SLAM-based LiDAR data as the robot moves through the environment. No GPS required. The same 1.57 kg scanner also deploys handheld, on a drone, backpack, vehicle, telescopic pole, or in a protective cage.
