SCENE processes and manages scanned data highly efficiently and easily by offering a wide range of functions and tools, such as filtering, automatic object recognition, scan registration, as well as automatic scan colorization.

After SCENE has prepared the scan data, you can begin evaluation and further processing right away. For this, it offers functions from simple measuring to 3D visualization through to meshing and exporting your scan data into various point cloud and CAD formats.
