Most 3D scanners have a restricted object capture range, so you need one scanner for small objects, and a second scanner for large objects, and maybe even a third scanner for medium-sized objects. Not anymore. THREE gives you powerful projected light and focusable, high-resolution cameras, so you can rely on THREE for practically any scanning job, regardless of the object size.

Whether you're reverse-engineering a discontinued mechanical component, modifying a gaming miniature, capturing a sculpture, or creating content for your 3D printer, THREE is your versatile 3D scanning tool.

Scan a toy car or a real car! Both are possible with the THREE 3D Scanner!

THREE’s breakthrough ChromaSpec™ algorithm uses the full color spectrum to detect and process different-colored areas of the object. With THREE, most of the time you won’t need to worry about scan sprays. Instead of messing around, trying to get the settings just right, THREE lets you quickly get the scan you need, and keep your project moving forward.

THREE's software is built-in. There's nothing to install on your computer, and you don't need a powerful gaming computer either. THREE is a pure pleasure to use with an iPad, or Linux, or a Chromebook. Windows, IOS, MacOS, Android, all good. Whatever you have that runs a modern web browser will run THREE!

THREE does NOT need an internet connection and THREE is NOT a cloud service.
THREE runs its own web server and WIFI hotspot, and stores your scan projects internally. To make it even easier, you can connect THREE to your network with WIFI or Ethernet. Then, open your web browser and connect to "http://matterandform.local"

Now you're using THREE!

Matter and Form have been building 3D scanning software for the past 10 years. We know how to make complicated processes easy to understand. THREE is accurate like the best of the best metrology scanners, but easy enough that a middle school student can get up and running in a few minutes.  

THREE is probably the most versatile 3D scanner ever made, with an incredible range of capturable object sizes and a full API. That's awesome by itself, but THREE is also (as far as we know) the ONLY 3D scanner in the world that is an edge computing device. You can create your own 3D and 2D computer vision and 3D scanning programs and THREE will run them for you.

Supported with open source projects and powerful plugins like JupyterLab and Python, THREE is your opportunity to get into the exciting and expanding field of 2D and 3D computer vision and automation systems.

With a full API, you can control THREE remotely from your computer, or a robot, or a robotic arm, or maybe even combine it with Home Assistant. Your creative possibilities are endless! Whether you're a vision professional, or a student taking your first steps in machine vision, THREE is an amazing tool with the support you need.

THREE scanned this Canadian $1 coin (the "Loonie"). Loonies are metal and usually shiny, but this one had a scuffed, dull patina. Regardless, we wanted to use scan spray on it but the spray obscured the surface details! They are that tiny! We wiped off the spray coating and made this beautiful turntable scan.

A Rubik's Cube is a surprisingly challenging object to scan due to having six different colors, black edging, and a cube shape. Challenging for some 3D scanners but not a problem for THREE! We captured it with four turntable scans, then aligned them together using THREE's Point Pick feature.

THREE scanned this water pump, even the black gaskets on each end, with minimal effort!

This cool air intake scan was performed in a household garage with no special lighting, equipment or preparation, just THREE and an iPad! Check out the process of capturing and processing this scan in the "How it Works" video section below.

This 2002 Yamaha Vino scooter took some time to scan, but it shows beautifully how much capability you'll have in your hands. THREE is an incredible tool that you can rely on to capture the tiniest of details to the largest of objects.

There is nothing else like THREE!
