    Got a Question About the Artec Ray II?

    Yes. You can control the scanner remotely via the Artec Remote mobile application.

    We recommend using Ray II to capture large objects such as wind turbines, ship propellers, airplanes, warehouses, and buildings.

    The most distinguishing difference and advantage of Artec Ray II is that it’s much more accurate. The scanner is able to capture objects and scenes with submillimeter accuracy over long distances. This feature makes Ray II a perfect, precise solution for reverse engineering, dimensional control, forensics, and more.

    Another difference is that Ray II captures much cleaner 3D data than other laser scanners. This means that you can spend significantly less time on processing and cleaning up the noise to get a final 3D model.

    Another critical advantage is that data scanned with Ray II can be easily paired with the data from other Artec scanners, all-in-one software — Artec Studio. For example, a large and complex object such as an airplane or a ship can be scanned with Ray II to capture the shape and all the bigger elements, while other smaller parts can be scanned with a different Artec scanner such as Leo, Eva, or Space Spider and in even higher resolution.
