Thanks to smart geometry tracking algorithms combined with a color camera, the Artec Leo 3D scanner automatically recognizes object surfaces based on their geometric texture and 1:1 color alignment. You simply turn on the device and scan directly, saving up to 90% of site preparation time compared to traditional laser scanners.

Real-Time Visual Inspection of Results

The HD touchscreen on the Artec Leo 3D scanner displays the 3D data (Mesh) in real-time as you move the device. This feature instantly informs users which areas have sufficient point density and which are missing data for immediate capturing, ensuring no details are missed before leaving the site.

Field-Proven Technical Specifications of Artec Leo 3D Scanner

Beneath its modern design lies a powerful, metrology-grade hardware configuration:

3D Accuracy: Up to 0.1 mm
