01
Preparation
The goal in this initial phase is to capture an accurate and detailed representation of the physical object. Key steps include ensuring the object is clean, taking comprehensive photos from all angles, using markers to assist the scanning process, applying necessary coatings to manage reflections, and maintaining consistent and stable lighting.
02
Scanning
3D scanning involves analysing real objects or environments to collect three-dimensional data about their shape. The collected data is then used to construct ultra-detailed 3D digital models. We typically use handheld scanners with an accuracy of up to 0.1 mm to capture the intricacies and details that make the Digital Twin of the real object unique.
03
Post Processing
The captured data points are processed into a mesh in this phase. This involves using AI-driven techniques to clean up reflections and invalid frames. Post-processing larger objects can take up to 24 hours, with most steps being automated. The main task is to monitor the results, ensuring accuracy and completeness.
04
Modelling & Texturing
In the Modelling & Texturing phase, the post-processed model is refined using 3D tools to correct scanning errors (retopology), adjust size, and optimize resolution and textures for various use cases such as web, streaming, or gaming engines. Each use case has specific requirements, necessitating different toolchains and expertise.
05
Customisation & Delivery
In this phase, the model is tailored for various delivery types. For web, this includes digital twins and customized NFT models. For other use cases, the asset is rendered as images or videos, used in streaming environments, or enriched with technical parameters for e-racing games. This step ensures the model meets specific requirements for its intended applications and target groups.

Use Case
swapr
An essential prerequisite for staging products is that the 3D data can be used on the website or in the shop. Many companies have 3D files that cannot be used for web applications. In collaboration with the brand agency Trufflebay, we have developed swapr, an online service that converts industrial 3D files into various output formats and automates the creation of multi-angle images, video sequences and interactive web formats.
