LET'S TALK ABOUT 3D SCANNING

Archaeologist uncover mysteries from the past more easily with the HP 3D Scanner Pro S3

10/31/2017

0 Comments

 
Latest case study video from HP showcasing two of Growshapes' customers Stan and Julia how are archaeologists at Eastern Washington University.

They 3D scan, 3D print and interact with prehistoric artifacts - an antler foreshaft and projectile point that was mounted on a spear used for hunting - to understand how people lived in the past, educate the public and interact with other researchers to share the knowledge.

Growshapes is at the SLATE Conference in Naperville, Illinois until tomorrow demonstrating the HP 3D Structure Light Scanner, so come see us!

"The 15th Annual SLATE Conference continues to challenge individuals, institutions, and organizations from across the country to engage in discussing the biggest challenges, hottest trends, and common issues focused on the use and application of technology in education." - SLATE Conference website
Picture
Universities and educational institutions are trying to adopt new technology more than ever, yet faculty is not as conversant with new technologies as the students and this seems to be the big challenge today in educational institutions.

Growshapes continues to support HP in pushing the latest technology such as 3D scanning into universities and once bought, Growshapes provide hands on customer support to ensure the equipment gets used rather than gather dust in the corner! 

The range of application of this 3D scanner in universities is surprisingly wide, ranging from mechanical engineering, archaeology, biomedical research to digital animation.  

If you want to learn more about what you can use the HP 3D scanner for, have a look at our learn more pages and watch the case study video.

3D Scanning and VR/AR Applications

10/9/2017

3 Comments

 
This article just published by Andrei Vakulenko, Chief Business Development Offcier at Artec 3D hits the spot about 3D Scanning.

"3D scanning is currently only scratching the surface of possibilities when it comes to the future of retail, from bringing stores to the customer through VR/AR to providing an easier process for product design. However, as AR/VR ideas catch on, 3D scanning is becoming ever more popular and is one of the key technologies that is guiding retail stores through digital transformation."   

3D scanning is traditionally thought of as being applied to reverse engineering or metrology. But new applications of 3D scanning are being explored by various industries, including retail.

Retailers are now creating digital twins of their storefront, creating 3D digital catalogs of their merchandise and enabling consumers to experience their products in their own homes through augmented reality and virtual reality applications.

Digital information is no longer confined to 2D.  More information is generated and stored in 3D to emulate the physical world around us. Just think of all the things that exist in the world that can be digitized......

We are excited to be part of helping people digitize the world in 3D and create new, useful as well as exciting applications. Growshapes is continuing its search for the best 3D scanners to distribute - so watch this space.

3D scanning was over $3B globally in 2016

10/2/2017

1 Comment

 
Global 3D scanning market was over USD 3 billion in 2016 according to the latest market forecast from Global Market Insights.

Different market reports have slightly different growth forecasts, ranging from 7.8% to 15% CAGR between 2014 and 2023/2024 and this one is forecasting a higher growth rate of 15%. Global Market Insights forecasts that healthcare, architecture/engineering and entertainment/media markets for 3D scanning, in addition to traditional applications such as industrial manufacturing and aerospace & defense is poised to drive growth.

​Below is the North America market size, which seems to be about 1/3 of the global market.
North America 3D scanning market size by application (USD Million)

"The 3D scanning market is highly fragmented in nature. With the intense competitive atmosphere in the industry, technological advancements undertaken by several industry participants play a vital role in influencing the industry growth. The players are scattered across different applications, technologies, and regions. The technology is being implemented in the entertainment field to generate 3D digital models for movies, photography, and video gaming purposes. They are being used in virtual cinematography as they are quicker to scan objects than manually generating models by using 3D modeling software."  - Global Market Insights

Interesting to note that one of our customers already using the HP Structured Light 3D scanner to create digital animation characters through scanning clay models (see the video here) rather than manually generating models, so digital animators can concentrate on art first and wrestle with technology second.

​We agree with this report that this is a field where we will see more adoption of 3D scanners. Furthermore, $3B market value is about the size of the VR market in 2016 too if we compare it to the figure by Digi-Capital.  If VR market grows, we may see more adoption of 3D scanners too to enable faster creation of various 3D content.
