Scan sensor "Structure Sensor" which enables easy 3D scanning of objects and AR display and 3D printing



The price of 3D printers is sharply decreasingFinally up to 20,000 yen or less appearsAlthough it is a price range that the printer can easily purchase, it is very difficult task to create a 3D model that is necessary for output. A 3D capture sensor that can be used easily even by people who can not do such 3D modeling, data can be converted into 3D data by simply projecting the object on the camera "Structure Sensor"is. By using this, it is possible to perform 3D scan of the object, 3D model of the room,ARIt is also possible to display technologies by applying them and to play AR games.

By connecting the Structure Sensor to the mobile terminal, the connected mobile terminal can capture the object in 3D, and it becomes possible to convert the shape of the object into data. You can also import this data to a 3D printer to create a model, or you can display it on the device's monitor with the AR function.


In a room without anything ......


I will hold the iPad equipped with Structure Sensor.


Then you can display 3D captured data like this.


Furthermore, I scan the furniture I care about with Structure Sensor.



I will send the data converted furniture.


By displaying this data indoors it is also possible to easily check whether the furniture you care about matches your home.



Furthermore, games using AR can be used.



With this Structure Sensor, it is easy to scan every object and it becomes possible to convert it to data.




In addition, developers can develop applications using this Structure Sensor. In Structure Sensor, it is possible to quickly convert the movement of the real world to three dimensional data, so it will be possible to develop innovative applications where reality and three dimensions work mutually.


Structure Sensor is designed to work perfectly on the iPad.


Currently it works with Apple's Lightning connector.


The main body color is two colors of Silver and Ice Blue.


The body material is made of aluminum.


Tempered glass protects the infrared emitter and the camera part, since it uses infrared LED, it can be used at night.


If you actually take a picture in the dark, a dark screen like the left half is normally displayed on the camera, but in the Structure Sensor it looks like the right half.


Built-in battery is installed in Structure Sensor, it seems that continuous operation time is 4 hours, if it is in standby state it can be used for more than 1000 hours.


The main body size is 119.2 mm × 27.9 mm × 29 mm, weight 99.2 g.


Captureable range of Structure Sensor is from 40 cm to 3.5 m.


You can see how you actually capture 3D models using Structure Sensor from the following movies.
