About 3D Scanning
3D scanning is a process of capturing the shape and appearance of real-world objects or environments to create digital 3D models. It's widely used in various industries like manufacturing, healthcare, archaeology, and entertainment. The process typically involves using a 3D scanner, which can be a handheld device or a stationary setup, to capture data points from the surface of an object. These data points are then processed to create a 3D model, often using software like MeshLab or Geomagic. There are several types of 3D scanning technologies, including laser scanning, structured light scanning, and photogrammetry. Laser scanning uses a laser beam to measure distances to surfaces and is known for its high accuracy but can be expensive. Structured light scanning projects patterns onto surfaces and analyzes the deformations to determine shape, offering good accuracy at a more affordable price point. Photogrammetry involves taking multiple photos of an object from different angles and using software to analyze the photos and reconstruct the object's 3D shape. 3D scanning has numerous applications. In manufacturing, it's used for quality control, reverse engineering, and creating digital archives of parts. In healthcare, it's used for creating custom prosthetics and orthotics. In archaeology, it's used to digitally preserve and study artifacts. In entertainment, it's used for creating digital doubles of actors and for virtual reality experiences. As technology advances, 3D scanning is becoming more accessible and affordable, opening up new possibilities in various industries.

3D scanning costs can vary widely, typically ranging from $100 to $700 per hour for professional services, with the total cost depending on factors such as the complexity of the object, the level of detail required, and whether post-processing work is needed.
Can 3D scanning be used on reflective or transparent surfaces?
Can 3D scanning be used on reflective or transparent surfaces?
Yes, but reflective or transparent surfaces often require special preparation, such as applying a temporary coating, to capture accurate data.
What is the maximum size of an object that can be scanned?
What is the maximum size of an object that can be scanned?
The maximum size of an object that can be scanned varies depending on the 3D scanner being used, but some industrial 3D scanners can handle objects as large as a car or even an entire building.
How can I ensure the best quality in my 3D scan?
How can I ensure the best quality in my 3D scan?
To ensure the best quality in your 3D scan, make sure to use good lighting, maintain a steady hand or use a tripod, capture your subject from multiple angles, calibrate your scanner properly, keep your scanner and subject still during the scan, and utilize high-resolution settings where possible. Additionally, clean the subject of any dust or debris and avoid reflective or transparent materials as they can interfere with the scanning accuracy.

Tutors & Services Philosophy
Don't Learn Alone
Professionals these days are sitting alone and staring at their computers. They spend years searching online for tools that will increase their workplace efficiency—digging through forums and watching lengthy videos for the right CAD or visualization tip.
Sometimes they just have one small question that would take a person two minutes to answer, but customer support lines are a thing of the past. Big companies will direct you to an FAQ that will hardly begin to answer your question.
Bring Back the Human Connection
We strive to bring human connection back to the work environment. Our tutors work directly with you to solve your problems, similar to the way an apprentice works hand-in-hand with a skilled professional.
Screen-share technologies like Zoom have allowed us to work together in real time. We can see each others' screens and cursors, switch presenters to share information easily, and even turn on webcams for a more human interaction. Learn efficiently across workflows like architectural rendering, interiors, mechanical modeling, and construction documentation.
Tutors, Services, or Both
Sometimes our clients want to learn a program from beginning to end; sometimes they completely hand over the services to us; and other times, they want something in between.
Some clients want to be able to use the program on a basic level and let us do the hard stuff. Others want to co-work with us, supervising our work to ensure their artistic vision is realized. Along the way, they learn the tools—whether that’s SketchUp, Blender, Fusion 360, Revit, or AutoCAD.
By the end of the process, some clients are able to wean themselves completely off of our services and are empowered to do the work themselves. If they get stuck or behind on a deadline, they use us as a lifeline. They can call anytime—even if it’s just a 10-minute question—we are here to help.
