Artec Ray II Laser 3D Scanner

Advantages of the Artec Ray II

Metrology-grade Precision

When it comes to capturing precise measurements, the Ray II excels. Its advanced technology ensures accuracy down to the finest details, making it ideal for applications that require precise measurements, such as surveying and engineering projects.

Portable & Easy Setup

Gone are the days of cumbersome and time-consuming setup procedures. The Artec Ray II is designed with portability in mind, allowing users to easily transport it to various locations. Setting up the device is a breeze, saving valuable time and effort.

Speed of Data Acquisition

Time is of the essence, especially when it comes to large-scale scanning projects. With the Ray II, capturing high-quality 3D data is incredibly fast, up to 2,000,000 points per second, taking less than two minutes to acquire a complete scan. This impressive speed boosts productivity and efficiency, allowing users to complete projects in record time.

GPS & Altimeter for Data Registration

Accurate data registration is crucial for successful 3D scanning. The Artec Ray II is equipped with GPS and an altimeter, enabling precise positioning and automatic alignment of scan data. This feature ensures seamless integration of multiple scans, resulting in a comprehensive and accurate digital representation- saving hours of post-processing.

3X 36 Megapixel Cameras

Exceptional texture mapping adds a new level of realism to 3D scans. The Ray II incorporates three high-resolution 36-megapixel cameras, capturing vibrant and detailed texture maps. The result is stunning visual fidelity that brings scanned objects to life.

Full Field of View Scanning

Comprehensive coverage is important, especially when dealing with large-scale items. The Ray II offers a full field of view scanning capability, 360° horizontal / 300° vertical, allowing users to capture the entirety of an object in a single scan, streamlining the digitization process.

Removal of Moving Objects

In real-world scenarios, it's not uncommon for a person or object to move through the scene during scanning. The Ray II addresses this challenge by providing an advanced algorithm that removes unwanted moving objects from the scan data. This feature ensures that the final scan is clean and accurate.
