3D Model Scanning @ The Studio
3D Model Scanning @ The Studio
The Studio can scan and digitize items then replicate the item using our 3D printers. Scan quality and results vary widely depending on the item being scanned, especially the item’s texture, color, size, sheen, symmetry, and other factors. Patrons can make a consultation appointment with Studio staff to discuss and scan your object.

* Use of a mobile device requires a higher end mobile device with at least 8gb of onboard RAM and sufficient processing power. This also requires the mobile device to connect wirelessly to the CR-Scan Otter’s base station via a Wi-Fi connection. Additionally, use of the scanner with a mobile device requires the Creality Scan app to be installed.
