Scanning Brazilian Football Team 475x353 National Brazilian football team are miniaturised in 3D

The entire Brazilian National Football team have been 3D scanned for an upcoming Globo multi media project.

3D scanning technology specialists Artec travelled to Geneva, Switzerland to scan the upper body of each player using the Artec EVA 3D scanner.

Processing was done in Artec Studio and it took five hours to successfully complete the process but there were difficulties along the way.  For example, scanning Dante, who is famous for his flamboyant curly Afro haircut was a particularly tough job for the EVA.

The Artec 3D scanner uses a circular flash and doesn’t require markers or calibration.  It captures 3D resolution up to 0.5 mm with a 3D point accuracy up to 0.1 mm. 

Artec Spider 210x300 National Brazilian football team are miniaturised in 3DArtec also recently unveiled the Artec Spider at the Control Show in Stuttgart, Germany – a hand-held 3D scanner capable of scanning sharp edges and small objects with ultra-high resolution.

 

Named The Spider because of its many “eyes” it has has been developed for scanning objects with many small details, such as molds, PCBs, coins and engravings.

Artec Spider was created as a solution for rapid prototyping, CAD design and manufacturing, quality control, as well as for other industries such as heritage preservation, graphic design medicine, automotive and aerospace – where Artec technology has already been implemented.

As with the HMD market, the professional 3D scanning and printing manufacturers will be keen to produce state-of-the art solutions as consumer devices get increasingly more powerful and affordable.
