The VIUscan color scanner can achieve hyperrealistic results thanks to features such as simultaneous texture and geometry capture, real-time rendering, true-color capture through an integrated lighting system, and automatic texture mapping.
Like the other devices in the Handyscan 3D series, the VIUscan is a highly accurate, easy-to-learn, straightforward-to-use, and versatile device. In practical applications, including the gaming and entertainment industries, the VIUscan will be a highly efficient tool.
“This new 3D scanner gives us the opportunity to open up new markets. The possibilities for innovation are endless,” says Charles Mony, president of Creaform. “SIGGRAPH brings together the best and brightest minds in computer graphics, multimedia, and design, and is the perfect setting to preview our product.”
