VIUscan handheld 3D Color Scanner unveiled

Aug 12 2008, 7:46am CDT | by Luigi Lugmayr

Creaform pushes the limits of portable 3D scanning with the introduction of the VIUscan, a self-positioning handheld and high resolution portable 3D color scanner.
The VIUscan color laser scanner can achieve hyper realistic results thanks to features such as simultaneous texture and geometry acquisition, real-time rendering, true color acquisition through a built-in lighting system, adjustable uniform texture resolution and automatic 100 percent-accurate texture mapping.
Like its fellow scanners from the Handyscan 3D line-up, the VIUscan is a very accurate, easy to learn and use, and versatile device.
Creaform exhibits the VIUscan color 3D scanner at the SIGGRAPH 2008 this week.
