Why Buy a $10,000+ 3D Scanner When You Can Get One For Less Than $1,000?
When shopping for a professional-grade 3D scanner to use for industry applications–whether it’s reverse engineering, quality inspection, or scientific measurement–people are often surprised to find these systems are substantially more expensive compared to its consumer-grade counterpart. Why is there such a discrepancy in price?
Using 3D Scanning to Monitor Growth Rate of Living Corals
Staghorn coral is an endangered species once thriving in the Caribbean. To plan for its future restoration efforts, researchers want to investigate the interacting influences of light and partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2) on the corals. Learn how 3D scanning was used to monitor the growth rate of live corals without harm in this research study.
The ability to produce high quality 3D printed models on demand using a variety of materials is an empowering tool. Product development teams can substantially speed up time-to-market and create better products, giving your company a competitive edge. Is it time to take advantage of 3D printing and implement the technology into your business?

Perplexus Solves 3D Modeling Puzzle With SpaceClaim
Michael McGinnis is the inventor of the award-winning toy, Perplexus. He taught himself how to use SpaceClaim with no prior knowledge of using CAD software to take his designs to the next level–from concept modeling, prototyping, to preparation for manufacturing. Learn how McGinnis replaced his physical design process with 3D modeling and saved hours in every iteration of his designs.
Our team will be participating at the ICVM, a forum for researchers in vertebrate morphology, to promote the use of 3D technology in research studies. 3D scanning provides an efficient method for data collection and statistical analysis. By examining the 3D measurements of an organism’s biological structure, information can be inferred about a specimen’s genetics, environment, evolutionary changes, and how it lived.
International Congress of Vertebrate Morphology
June 29-July 3, 2016
Bethesda, Maryland (just outside Washington, DC)
Bethesda North Marriott Hotel & Conference Center
