Comprehensive long-range capture
With the long-range 3D scanner Ray II, the expansive 360°-300° field of view gives you flexibility to capture objects from 0.5 to 130 meters away, and with high accuracy and superior quality.
Onboard control
Fuss-free scanning is ensured with the intuitive Ray II – with basic features accessible on board, it’s as simple as pressing a button, with no computer or other device needed.
Portable and quick to set up
Fuss-free scanning is ensured with the intuitive Ray II – with basic features accessible on board, it’s as simple as pressing a button, with no computer or other device needed.
Remote scanning
When scanning something large, in an inaccessible location, or at a height you can’t safely be on, control your scanner easily and from a distance with the Artec Remote App.
Real-time registration on board
Track the scanner’s movement in real time with feature tracking and advanced algorithms for intuitive 3D-space navigation including Ray II’s Visual Inertial System (VIS), Altimeter, compass, and Global Navigation Satellite System.
Automatic removal of moving objects
Ray II’s smart auto-removal of moving objects that may enter or exit the scene keeps all captured data focused on exactly what you need.
Continuous supply battery system
Powered by two hot-swappable batteries and another two on standby, the 3D laser scanner Ray II comes ready to scan for a full 8 hours. Need more time? Charge while you scan, and swap without any downtime.
Water and dust protection: IP54 (IEC 60529)
Your scanner is protected and your work kept safe with the Ray II’s water and dust protection, designed to keep particles or humidity from getting into your device.
Perfect match for Leo
Exceptionally well-suited for use with the wireless powerhouse Artec Leo, the duo can quickly capture large or even massive objects with high accuracy and full coverage.
Power couple
An unbeatable combination of two smart, wireless scanners: Artec Ray II’s range and speed for full scenes and large objects, the handheld Artec Leo for specific areas and angles.
All Artec 3D scanners
The long-range Ray II also integrates with all other Artec 3D scanners in seconds.
Built-in touch panel screen and simple interface
Upload to Artec Studio to precisely position and fit your scans with CAD primitives, then export to SOLIDWORKS or other CAD software – or for inspection, directly to Geomagic Control X for in-depth reports.
