How does it work
Depending on the job you’re doing and what data you need, you can now switch easily from basic SD scanning mode to the brand-new HD for an extra level of definition and quality with your scanner.
With the same scanner, greater customization for exactly what you need is at your fingertips. If you're short on time or don't need fine geometry, are scanning outdoors or with limited battery supply, SD Mode has you covered. With the new HD Mode, however, your Artec Eva or Leo can be instantly turned into a far more powerful and versatile 3D scanner, capturing fine lines and difficult corners, in less time and with excellent geometry.
How to get HD Mode?
To start using HD Mode, you need an Artec Eva or Leo scanner with an active Artec Studio 15 license, and a compatible PC.
Artec 3D AI Engine
The new HD Mode is powered by Artec AI, a proprietary state-of-the-art neural engine for your scanner. Trained on hundreds of thousands of carefully selected samples, the engine’s neural network detects familiar patterns, surface details, and shapes, and allows your 3D scanner to reconstruct a far higher number of polygons per frame, resulting in 3D data that’s denser and in higher quality.
Introducing HD data density
Look forward to scans with unparalleled degrees of resolution, coverage, and detail when you pick up your Eva or Leo 3D scanner and turn on HD reconstruction mode. You have the freedom to select the desired density of your HD scans from a standard 1X density all the way up to an astonishing 36X for Eva (~3 mln polygons per frame) and 64X for Leo (~5 mln polygons per frame).

Processing [BETA]
With Artec Cloud, you now have easy processing with the tools you need most, right on your browser.
Key features
If you’ve gone all in with a full-access account, your processing options are similar to Artec Studio – choose between Manual and Autopilot. On a Processing account, you can process up to 20 projects per month – and since you don’t have to use up your computer memory, GPU, or CPU, you can process as many as you like at a time.
In manual mode, you’re presented with five stages of processing: Align, Prepare Scan, Make Model, Adjust Model, and Export.
Align
The alignment tool is made with ease of use in mind: Choose between manual and auto to align multiple scans according to your needs or preferences.
Prepare Scan
With fewer actions and steps, there's no need to switch between panels or different groups of algorithms, making it that much easier for new users while saving time for all. When selecting Key Frames, type the number you want, or move the slide to the desired digit.
Make Model
The Make Model process corresponds with Fusion in Artec Studio. Here, you can fuse your scans and create your 3D model before proceeding to the next stage.
Adjust Model
The final step in processing is to adjust your model. Here, you can work on texturing, mesh simplification, and removing any unnecessary noise to clean up your final model before you’re ready to share, export, or send it.
Export
Your processed 3D models can be exported with your chosen level of granularity in OBJ, STL, PLY, or VRML, while high-resolution screenshots take the form of JPG, PNG, or WEBP.
Manual Editing
Also powering up the Processing plan is manual editing. Here, you’ll have the ability to utilize the most essential tools from Artec Studio, which you can use at any stage of Processing.
Edit your data with the Eraser, Position, Transformation, Smoothen, and Mirror tools.
Erase
Remove unnecessary or unwanted data from your 3D scanning scene to create crisp, clean 3D models.
Position
Reposition or center your objects as you require during your processing. The Position tool is useful for when you work with several objects, or need to center your objects within a coordinate system.
Transform
Within Artec Cloud, you are able to change the size of your scanned objects should you need them on the same scale as one another, or larger or smaller than they appear.
Smooth
This tool is useful for when you need to smoothen scanning defects, which may at times occur when scanning tricky surfaces or hard-to-reach areas.
Mirror
Particularly useful in reverse engineering, the Mirror tool lets you flip your scan data to create a mirrored version of the objects you have scanned.
HD is a scanning mode powered by artificial intelligence algorithms that allows you to create sharper, cleaner, and far more detailed 3D models with a resolution 2X higher than the original SD data. In HD Mode, a resolution of up to 0.2 mm can be achieved, and your Eva can capture much smaller and thinner elements, hard-to-reach areas, black and shiny surfaces and other parts that were difficult or impossible to capture before. HD Mode is available for Leo and Eva scanners running Artec Studio 15.1 or higher.
Visit here for more information about HD Mode.
Yes! Eva uses white structured light technology, which is absolutely safe for scanning any living creature. To get the best results, make sure that the person or animal holds their pose for the entire scanning process to avoid any artifacts or noise on the final model. Animals, fidgety as they tend to be, are often very tricky to capture so we recommend scanning them while they sleep.

No. Eva requires neither targets nor calibration to get started. The scanner uses powerful hybrid geometry and texture tracking to capture the objects in 3D — even those with minimal features. Eva collects two sets of data by which to track and perform processing, which results in much easier, faster, and smoother 3D scanning, as well as faster 3D data processing in comparison to scanners that require targets for scanning.
Multi-resolution Smart Fusion
Artec Studio's groundbreaking Smart Fusion algorithm seamlessly combines data from various Artec 3D scanners to create highly intricate 3D meshes. You can capture extensive objects or regions using Ray II, address any missing sections with Artec Leo, and then register both scans in a single, straightforward process. The result is a blended-data model, encompassing the broader scan captured at one resolution and the finer details digitized at another.
4X faster HD Mode
Artec 3D's revolutionary HD Mode is not only the updated default setting for Artec Eva and Leo but is also subject to ongoing enhancements. It now operates at an increased speed and features a more user-friendly interface. The adjustment of point density and frame frequency is automated, and you no longer have to mess with slider adjustments. Simply select from three presets, and the algorithm takes care of the rest, simplifying the process.
2X faster Global registration

Scene lighting optimization
With Artec Studio 18, you can reposition light sources within a 3D scene, optimizing the rendering and display of meshes to attain the highest quality results possible.
Tolerance Check Mode
When dealing with a part that must adhere to industry-specific tolerances, simply activate Tolerance Check Mode, and your 3D map will be recalculated, highlighting areas that fall outside the designated tolerance limits.
Automate defect detection
Rapidly identify inaccuracies with the enhanced 3D Compare Map in Artec Studio. Instead of manually inspecting a model's surface, you can swiftly pinpoint its least accurate areas by instructing the algorithm to seek out maximum deviations in mesh-CAD pairs.
Updated deviation mapping
The improved 3D Compare Map also provides the flexibility to calculate the distance between mesh-CAD pairs using various methods, including along normals or from one point to another.
Optimize part thickness
Explore the locations and reasons behind variations in thickness using Thickness Mapping. This tool allows comparison of thickness to a specified reference, ensuring that narrow geometries are not susceptible to breakage.
2D section analysis
Artec Studio's Section Analysis feature enables you to divide models into segments and perform in-depth inspections, area by area. This function automatically aligns models and meshes, facilitating 2D cross-section analysis to detect any inconsistencies or discrepancies. It's designed to minimize deviations, making it an ideal tool for ensuring accuracy in quality inspections or reverse engineering.
Mesh-to-CAD auto alignment
In Artec Studio 18, the initial step of aligning mesh-CAD pairs, which used to be a manual process, has been automated, eliminating the need for user input. This streamlines the quality inspection process.
Target thickness compensation

Whether you need to create a gap to accommodate deviations or adjust a part to align with the design intent, Artec Studio's move and offset tools are ideal for duplicating and modifying faces in different areas of your workspace.
Improved auto-surfacing
Since Artec Studio 17, Autosurfacing has been a popular feature with many users who re relied on it to transform polygonal meshes into models with smooth 'NURBS' surfaces. Artec Studio now introduces an updated version to help these users to further enhance the quality of geometry reconstruction.
Surface thickening tools
When dealing with the reverse engineering of intricate objects featuring non-primitive, freeform surfaces, Artec Studio now provides a solution. You can now solidify these by thickening the surface of a mesh or CAD model, and lend them greater stability in applications such as 3D printing.
Create draft angles
In Artec Studio, when 3D modeling or reverse engineering cast parts, you now have the capability to introduce a draft angle on the outer surfaces. This allows for easier extraction without causing damage to the molds.
Tools for tidying up
Most parts don't have entirely sharp edges. Artec Studio offers chamfer and fillet tools that allow you to refine models and add a level of polish, providing those finishing touches to reverse engineered parts.
Datum alignment for scan-to-CAD
As a rule of metrology, even when your scan is an impeccable digital twin of a part or object, if it isn’t properly aligned with its corresponding CAD reference model, any variances that show up can be unreliable due to misalignment.
With Datum alignment, all it takes is a few clicks to fully align your meshes and CAD models using key geometric features.
Enhanced targets support for metrology
Gain better manual control over reference objects for data registration such as circular targets, spheres, or checkerboards, if your scanning workflow requires it.
See them in 3D as part of your workspace, choose spheres or circular targets for registration, measure the distance between them, identify which are out of place or missing, and exclude them from registration. In addition, you can now import and choose multiple reference target clouds into the workspace.
Auto surfacing
Convert complex organic shapes into solid CAD models in one click with the new Auto Surface feature. Facilitate reverse engineering of complex geometries and create referential CAD surfaces for in-depth RE workflows in third-party CAD software.
Boolean operations
Modify your models with CAD entities and meshes, using industry-standard boolean operations: Union, Subtract, and Intersect. Build molds, create complex shapes, fine-tune meshes to match the design intent, and more.
Independent CAD shapes
Easily create, resize, and reposition primitive solid shapes into any part of your mesh, with no need to specify the required area for fitting. Just select the primitive you want to add, including the new cube shape (box), and that’s it.
Constraints 2.0
Artec Studio now keeps a history of the conditions and relations specified for each primitive, so you can save, edit, and refit them anytime – even outside the Construct panel. In addition, it allows you to base new constraints on the ones you imposed in previous sessions.
Mesh splitting for 3D printing
For AM professionals, preparing meshes for 3D printing is easier than ever thanks to the new Split by plane feature. This allows you to quickly and precisely break your mesh into manageable chunks, using a pre-fitted plane.
Improved Segment Brush
You can now change the size of the selected region dynamically with the Segmentation sensitivity slider. Simply mark the area you’d like to construct the CAD primitive in, and adjust the degree of expansion area with the slider.
Erase via Object selection
Your mesh editing process is now even faster thanks to the new Eraser selection mode “Object selection.” Instantly remove any unwanted elements from the scene by simply selecting separate parts of the mesh and removing them.
New Hole Filling tool
An updated Hole Filling algorithm lets you create smooth patches over any missing areas on a model. You can now choose between Flat and Smooth types of hole filling to restore the missing surfaces more precisely.
Perfect your 3D model texture for CGI
Working with photos is now even better thanks to improvements in our photo-texturing algorithm. You can now easily preview photos taken for the texture via the new photo-viewing mode and see how they fit into the texture.
Register photos in Artec Studio
Remove photos with any defects, overexposure, or ones that are poorly lit or taken at a suboptimal angle and see how they impact your final texture. With the new algorithm, images are sorted into groups: by size, camera type, or focal distance, allowing you to register them separately, and use all of them for texturing.
3D scan black, shiny, or fine areas
Artec Studio analyzes the surface of your object and automatically adjusts the sensitivity of your scanner to pick up areas that are tricky for 3D scanning. As a result, even new users can digitize black, shiny objects, or hair with ease.
