Number of functions available in Memento makes it a fantastic tool for capturing the real three dimensional objects and transforming them directly into 3D printing ready models. The repeatability of the process is very high, so after setting proper lighting and starting automatic scanning process user doesn’t have to be present when process is taking place. Taking 250 photos would take a lot of time, but thanks to Pixelio equipped with Memento app on a smartphone it takes just 14 minutes. Memento supports a much larger number of photos – 250 to be precise, thanks to which user can make much more precise 360☃D panoramic view or heavy detailed 3D scan of a object. We used the Pixelio – a fantastically useful and inexpensive equipment, designed directly for such usage. All we need to succesfully use the app is a smartphone and a device that will help us taking photos with it, in very precise way. In a matter of fact, there is a great chance, that we are facing the birth of a new approach to 3D scanning, that will bring this fascinating but horribly expensive technology into arms of everyday users. Memento is quite revolutionary when it comes to making 3D scanning easy and cheap.
But now Autodesk is ready to show the world a brand new solution that push the boundries of home 3D scanning up to the professional level. Ideal example is well known 123D Catch, which enables user to take several photos and use them in the app for creating a 3D scan or a panoramic view. It is also worth mentioning that in addition to solutions for professionals, Autodesk is successfully developing applications for ordinary users who can use their products at home for less commercial purposes or a hobby. Creators of such solutions like the AutoCAD family, 3ds Max or Inventor, provide high quality products that put them ahead of the competition.
Autodesk is an undeniable leader when it comes to professional apps for engineers and designers.
