With metrology-grade accuracy, this scanner boasts seven parallel blue laser lines, achieving precision down to 0.02mm. Its infrared structured light scanning capability enables markerless scanning, coupled with a unique face and body algorithm for rapid capturing of detailed human scans in just minutes.

Designed to excel in diverse scanning scenarios, the CR-Scan Raptor effortlessly handles objects ranging from small figurines to automobile components. Equipped with anti-shaking technology and capable of scanning black/metal objects without sprays, it ensures smooth and efficient scanning experiences. Additionally, its 24-bit full-color scanning and dual-color circular LED texture lights enhance realism and accuracy in various environments.

User-friendly features include a ring indicator light for real-time feedback, lightweight portability for one-hand control, and a high-precision glass calibration board for maintaining accuracy. The scanner offers two scanning modes: blue light mode for high-resolution precision and NIR mode for broader capture ranges.
