Exact Metrology’s Artec MHT Scanner

Exact Metrology is now offering a new 3D Scanner from Artec called the Artec MHT that can not only scan geometry, but colors and texture as well.  Capable of capturing full 24bpp color and model and then output it in a variety of model formats, it can capture 15 surfaces per second and requires no markers or mounts.

“With the new color and texture scanning capabilities the Artec MHT is unlike any 3D scanner at this price point ” states Steve Young Principal at Exact Metrology. “By capturing highly detailed color 3D models of people and objects the MHT 3D Scanner allows users to quickly and accurately create 3D representations of their world.”

It can be yours for just $20,000.
