Artec 3D launches Artec Studio Lite: Professional 3D capture for everyone

Luxembourg, November 18, 2025— Artec 3D, a global leader in 3D scanning technology, is proud to announce the launch ofArtec Studio Lite, a new, more accessible version of its industry-renowned software for 3D data capture and processing.

Designed to make professional-grade 3D tools available to a wider audience, Artec Studio Lite delivers cutting-edgeAI-powered photogrammetryalongside essential3D processing and analysiscapabilities, all in a streamlined, affordable package.

Bringing Pro tools to a broader audience

Artec Studio Prooffers a comprehensive set of professional 3D scanning, editing, reverse engineering, and quality inspection tools. Over the years, it has become the benchmark for professional 3D scanning, finding applications in industries ranging from manufacturing and healthcare to heritage preservation and CGI.

Now,Artec Studio Liteinherits Pro’s impressive toolset and brings the power of Artec 3D’s software to a much wider community. Allowing users to generate 3D models exclusively from photos and videos for the first time is expected to unlock new possibilities formakers, small businesses, educators, and more.

As part of an ongoing commitment to 3D innovation, Artec 3D continues to evolve its platform with powerfulAI Photogrammetrytools that pair the precision of 3D scanning with the flexibility of photo-based modeling. Built for professionals, this technology represents a huge leap forward in the field of 3D data capture.

“With AI Photogrammetry, we’ve rolled out a game-changing feature for creating exceptionally lifelike 3D models. Now, with Artec Studio Lite we’re taking this technology even further and making it accessible to a wider audience,” said Art Yukhin, President & CEO of Artec 3D. “We’re also very excited to see what makers and engineers across industries can do with our all-in-one, reimagined solution, Artec Studio Pro.”

Photogrammetry and beyond

Artec Studio Lite retains the coreprocessing, editing, reverse engineering and inspectioncapabilities of its professional counterpart, while introducing a simplified, intuitive workflow designed for users working exclusively with photos and videos.

Harnessing the power ofAI-driven algorithms, Artec Studio Lite reconstructs fine details with outstanding fidelity and achieves highgeometric accuracy, often surpassing the performance of many low-cost scanners and competing photogrammetry solutions.

Even with very few photos, it delivers accurate, visually rich models, including those ofdark, shiny, translucent, or featureless surfacesthat typically challenge other software.

Key features include:

• Multi-camera support– Combine photos and videos from different devices, including drones, in a single click.
• Sharp image prioritization– Automatically selects the sharpest images for texturing, ideal for CGI and e-commerce.
• No-masking algorithms– Capture objects on turntables or flip them during shooting, with artifact-free results.
• Automated workflows– Predefined settings allow one-click model generation.
• Built-in scale bars– Deliver sub-millimeter accuracy for real-world measurements and CAD deviation analysis.

Users can alsoedit meshes, prepare models for3D printing, andexportthem in multiple standard formats for use in third-party applications.

A software that grows with you

Unlike low-cost scanners with fixed hardware capabilities,Artec Studioevolves continuously through annual updates, introducing new features and improvements inspired by professional workflows. This makesArtec Studio Litenot just an entry-level solution, but afuture-proof ecosystemfor digital reality capture.

“As our slogan says, ‘The power is in the software’,” added Yukhin. “Artec Studio Lite is a self-sufficient, powerful solution for anyone who needs accurate digital twins. Whether for science, education, heritage preservation, forensics, CGI, or e-commerce, all you need is a camera, smartphone, drone, or even a microscope, together with Artec Studio Lite, to create ultra-realistic 3D models.”

Availability

Artec Studio Litewill be officially unveiled atFormnext 2025, where visitors to the Artec 3D booth (Booth E09, Hall 12.1), can try the software firsthand and even have a chance to win a free license as one of the first users.

The software will be available for purchase on theArtec 3D website starting November 18, with flexible subscription options, including monthly and annual plans, for bothindividual (non-profit)andcommercialuse.
