Our expertise dates back to 1996, when our team helped to create the first hand-held 3D laser scanner – 3DScanners ModelMaker. This invention won the European IST Grand Prize for being the best and most accurate scanner in the industry.

The ModelMaker scanner is still well known today, holding the new name ‘Nikon ModelMaker’.

Included with the scanner was the software KUBE: it was used to drive the 3D laser scanning and the post-processing of the data, making the package one of the most intuitive and easy to use in the market. Our team was responsible for almost all of the activities related to the software from creating accurate point clouds to generating optimised results.
