The world of 3D scanning has witnessed rapid advancement over the years. With this evolution, the focus has shifted towards making powerful scanning tools accessible to everyday consumers. Long gone are the days when precise 3D scanning was limited to high-end industrial applications. The continuous rise of consumer 3D scanning is here, and the 3DMakerpro’s Seal 3D scanner could push these boundaries even further.

As the digitization trend continues to expand, more people are seeking ways to convert physical objects into digital replicas. 3D scanning plays a pivotal role in fulfilling this desire, turning everything from artifacts to body parts into accurate digital models. Through its crowdfunding campaign, the 3DMakerpro Seal wants to deliver an unprecedented level of detail and portability to the consumer market.

Freshly launched on Indiegogo, 3DMakerpro is planning to launch two models: the SealLite and Seal Lite. Both serving a specific set of consumer needs, the company intends to bring professional 3D scanning capabilities to entry-level users, hobbyists, small businesses and more.

Let’s learn more about the 3DMakerpro Seal, along with its lightweight counterpart.

The Seal 3D Scanner Delivers Professional-Level Performance to Consumers

Boasting supreme detail capture with accuracy of 0.01mm and a resolution of 0.05mm, Seal isn’t just another 3D scanner. It’s a pocket-sized marvel, measuring a mere 110 x 60 x 35mm, making it as portable as a pack of gum. Whether you’re at an archaeological site under the glaring sun or in the subdued lighting of a museum, the incredibly portable Seal is designed to perform.

The device’s AI Smart + Power Grip, an innovative gimbal system, provides an unobtrusive scanning environment. The 24-bit color texture camera, coupled with a high-quality color CMOS image sensor, ensures that the digital models don’t just mimic the shape but also replicate the object’s vibrant colors. The anti-shake optical lenses further enhance the scanner’s prowess, offering a stable scanning experience even for beginners.

Diving Deeper: Additional Noteworthy Features

The Seal employs blue light technology, which, with its shorter wavelength, produces precise structured light. This light offers superior scanning accuracy and image resolution, capturing the minute intricacies of the scanned objects. Moreover, the Seal scanner’s proprietary software, JMStudio, offers a “rookie-friendly” environment, providing detailed guides for newcomers. This software is continuously updated to keep pace with the latest scanning needs.

One of the significant challenges in 3D scanning is maintaining the object’s position. Seal elegantly resolves this issue with its AI visual tracking system, which can identify target objectives without the need for any markers. To enhance flexibility, Seal offers multiple scanning modes, including Turntable Mode, Handheld Mode, and a combination of both.

For those long scanning sessions, the device’s impressive 240-minute scanning endurance, powered by a high-performance 10000mAh lithium battery, ensures continuous operation. If precision is paramount, users also have the option of a professional-grade dual-axis turntable to enhance their scanning quality.

JMStudio: The Perfect Software Companion

JMStudio not only complements the Seal scanner but is a powerhouse in itself. This software not only aids in scanning but also speeds up the post-scanning processing. And for those looking to always stay updated, they can head over to JimuMeta for the latest software versions.

Seal Lite: Lower Cost Without Much Performance Sacrifice

The Seal and its sibling, the Seal Lite, are not just products but statements of what’s achievable in consumer-grade scanning. While the Seal stands out with its 0.01mm accuracy and 0.05mm resolution, the Seal Lite is not far behind, offering 0.02mm accuracy and 0.07mm resolution. Both devices harness the potential of blue light encoded structured light, capturing five times more detail per unit than conventional scanners.

Staying true to its consumer ambitions, the Seal and Seal Lite are coming out at an affordable price near you. Early bird backers on the newly launched Indiegogo campaign will receive special pricing – limited to the first 500 purchases of each model, respectively.

The feature-fledged 3DMakerpro Seal model, which will retail at $699, is available to early backers for just $384. The Seal Lite, which will retail at $359, will be available for $199.

A New Era in Consumer 3D Scanning?

The 3DMakerpro Seal doesn’t intend to be just another 3D scanner; it’s an experience tailored for the consumer market. Whether you’re a professional looking for a low-cost way to capture granular detail or a hobbyist seeking an easy-to-use scanning solution, the Seal is designed to cater to a spectrum of needs.

With its high-level precision, vivid textures, anti-shaking lenses, and state-of-the-art software, the Seal 3D scanner is indeed redefining the boundaries of consumer 3D scanning. As the realm of 3D scanning broadens, products like Seal aim to ensure that precision, detail, and user-friendliness remain at the forefront for all users.
