We transform automotive customization with high-accuracy 3D scanning services to create bespoke parts for any vehicle—from flares, bumpers, and spoilers to internal panels and subwoofer enclosures. Our mobile team comes on-site to capture your car’s intricate geometry, delivering precise data quickly and efficiently. This detailed scan-to-CAD workflow generates exact CAD models that form the foundation for fabrication, ensuring every component, whether a dashboard insert or exterior body modification, achieves tight, accurate fitment and integrates perfectly with your vehicle’s unique contours.
We enhance marine customization with high-accuracy 3D scanning and advanced CAD design, creating digital models for components such as swim platforms, handrails, hoist points, tie-down fittings, propellers, custom Bimini tops, engine mounts, overhead arch assemblies, and more.
Our team uses advanced structured light 3D scanners directly on-site to capture your vessel’s complex geometry quickly and with exceptional precision. This detailed scan-to-CAD workflow allows us to design for a perfect fit, ready for fabrication.
The result is custom marine parts that integrate seamlessly with your boat or yacht, improving both functionality and aesthetics while eliminating guesswork in the design process.
Our advanced 3D scanners capture precise digital models of physical objects, generating detailed point cloud or mesh data. This digital representation is imported into CAD software for reverse engineering or product development.
For legacy parts without existing CAD data, the scanned model becomes the foundation for creating new, fully editable CAD models—preserving the original design while enabling modifications to improve performance, manufacturability, or cost efficiency.
We also support first article inspections by overlaying 3D scans of a manufactured part with the original CAD model. This comparison precisely identifies any deviations, ensuring the part meets design specifications and tolerances before full-scale production.
Our integrated scan-to-CAD workflow streamlines design, accelerates prototyping and manufacturing, and maintains high quality standards from concept through production.
3D scanning is a powerful tool for creating standout designs in the brand, retail, and experiential sectors. Using advanced structured light 3D scanners, we transform real-world objects into high-fidelity digital assets that can be endlessly adapted to meet diverse project requirements.
These precise scans are used to reverse engineer existing products, apply targeted design updates, or reimagine branded items in entirely new ways. The result: unique, custom designs that capture attention and align perfectly with your creative vision.
Our process captures high accuracy data for bespoke items such as display stands, marketing props, prototypes, and interactive installations. This scan-to-CAD workflow empowers agencies, designers, and brands to develop high quality, fully customized solutions that stand out in competitive spaces.
Our 3D scanning services help artists, fabricators, and public art teams digitally capture their creative visions with unmatched precision—transforming them into highly accurate 3D mesh data. Using advanced structured light 3D scanners, we record every intricate detail so fabricated pieces faithfully reflect the artist’s original intent.
Beyond simple replication, our process supports scale adjustments in any direction, enabling projects to be adapted for different spaces or formats. Designs can be CNC machined from foam or 3D printed in a wide range of materials—from flexible plastics to hard, durable polymers—meeting diverse installation and durability requirements.
With accurate scan data, we use digital sculpting and CAD tools to refine, modify, or enhance the model before fabrication. This scan-to-fabrication workflow allows us to produce components that assemble seamlessly, bringing the artist’s vision from the digital world into a physical, install-ready work of art.
We support historic preservation and cultural heritage restoration projects with high-accuracy 3D scanning and detailed CAD modeling. Our structured light 3D scanners capture delicate architectural details, ornamental plaster, carved wood, and heritage artifacts without physical contact—ideal for digitally archiving or preparing precise reproductions.
This scan-to-CAD workflow provides accurate digital models for fabrication, restoration planning, or long-term preservation. Whether we’re documenting a historically significant structure, creating replicas of decorative features, or capturing artifacts for future generations, we deliver high quality data you can trust.
We help film, TV, and live event productions bring creative concepts to life with precise 3D scanning and digital modeling. Using structured light 3D scanners, we capture props, set pieces, and costumes in stunning detail—generating high accuracy point clouds and CAD models that integrate seamlessly into VFX pipelines or fabrication workflows.
Our scans are ideal for reverse engineering props for stunt-safe replicas, scaling or modifying designs for set requirements, and creating digital assets ready for 3D printing, CNC machining, or CGI. From intricate hero props to large-scale set elements, we provide high quality data that keeps productions on time and on budget.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you scan on site?
Yes. We provide mobile on-site scanning in New York City and across the Northeast region, with nationwide service available by request.
What file formats can you provide?
We deliver STL, OBJ, and other common formats, plus CAD-ready files for manufacturing workflows.
How big or small can the object be?
We can scan items from a few inches to several meters in size, indoors or outdoors.
Non-Contact & Safe
Our 3D scanning process is completely non-invasive, capturing fine details without ever touching the surface. That makes it safe for fragile artifacts, delicate artwork, and equally effective for precision-engineered automotive parts.
High Accuracy
Our 3D scanners capture geometry with precision up to 0.050 mm, making them ideal for projects where fit and function are critical. Every scan reflects the true dimensions of the original, eliminating costly guesswork.
Color Acquisition
Our 3D scanners capture full surface texture at 50–200 DPI resolution with 24-bit color depth. This level of detail ensures accurate reproduction of surface finishes, patterns, and colors — whether you’re documenting historic artifacts or creating realistic CAD models and renders.
