Designed For
Creators, hobbyists, and beginners who want to scan, process, and share 3D models straight from the scanner, with no computer needed, from small figures to people and motorcycles.
Not Recommended For
You need metrology-grade accuracy, laser scanning for fine metal parts, or a scanner for professional engineering and inspection work.
An 8 core CPU, 32GB RAM, and 512GB SSD let you scan, process, and save right on the 6.4 inch 2K touchscreen.
Infrared MEMS for detailed close range scans and VCSEL for larger objects like motorcycles and kayaks.
A 48MP texture camera records vivid, true color detail on shoes, figures, and artwork.
Automatic settings and one-tap processing make it easy to get good results from your first scan.
Upload to SHINING 3D Cloud with 5GB of free storage, or cast your scan to a second screen.
Works in sunlight and at night with 10 built-in LEDs, and handles dark surfaces well.
See the full workflow in real conditions. Book a live demo with our experts and scan your parts.
Speak with a 3D scanning specialist about specifications, workflows, and integration goals.
Capture detailed 3D models with vivid 48MP color for AR/VR projects and consumer products like footwear.
Scan motorcycle and vehicle parts wirelessly, moving freely and reviewing results on the built-in screen.
Educators and researchers effortlessly digitize outdoor monuments—such as intricate stone reliefs—in direct sunshine without needing to bring a laptop.
Less spray prep before you scan, no cable while you scan, and one scanner from small parts to full interiors. Here is what that means for your everyday projects.
All in One
Built-in computing | 6.4 in touchscreen
Scanning, processing and saving all run on the scanner, so you can capture objects anywhere without a laptop.
True Color
5 GB free cloud space to share scans
Cloud sharing | Wireless projection
A high resolution color camera records surface texture, so your models look closer to the real object.
Two Modes
Infrared MEMS | Infrared VCSEL
Two infrared modes cover close detail and longer range, so one scanner handles small and large objects.
Power on with one click and scan straight from the built-in touchscreen.
Use HD mode for small, detailed objects or Fast mode for larger items.
Capture shape and color, then process the model on the device with one tap.
Fill holes, measure, and simplify the model in EXStar Hub, then export to STL, OBJ, PLY, 3MF, or ASC.
Select scanners to compare key specifications side-by-side.
