Notice of Seminar
Thursday, April 3, 1:30 PM – We will be using 町田ひろ子. All participants will work together to scan the facility. After the scan, our staff will review the images you’ve captured and provide advice.
Here are some tips for 3D scanning
As we introduce 3D scanning technology, we’ll share tips on how to use Scanat, with a focus on best practices for capturing images.
Experience scanning together with everyone
We will be using 町田ひろ子 as our venue, where all participants will work together to scan the facility.
After the scan, our staff will review the images you’ve captured and offer advice.
This time, we're significantly extending the photo session!
We have significantly extended the photo session time so that all participants can enjoy the scanning experience.
Through this session, you’ll learn how to capture (scan) images in a way that allows you to create a high-quality model quickly and efficiently!

What is 3DScan?
3D scanning technology refers to a system that uses devices (3D scanners) to measure the shapes and spatial relationships of real-world objects, converting them into 3D data.
It allows for the capture of shapes and measurements without physically touching the objects.
By capturing the shapes of various objects—such as terrain, buildings, vehicles, and cultural properties—users can view and zoom in on objects and spaces from various angles, as well as measure their dimensions. History of 3D Scanners
What is a 3D scanner?
3D scanners project light—such as lasers or LEDs—onto an object and use a camera to capture and calculate the time difference and angle of reflection, thereby acquiring the object’s surface topography as 3D data.
They are characterized by few restrictions based on weight, size, or material, and the ability to quickly convert complex shapes into 3D data.
Facial recognition features on smartphones and LiDAR sensors used in autonomous driving are also common examples of 3D scanners.
The emergence of LiDAR scanners and their integration into the iPhone and iPad
LiDAR has a long history; it is a technology that has been in use since the 1960s, when it was first mounted on aircraft to scan terrain. Since the 1980s, LiDAR has become even more widespread, and data collected from LiDAR scans can now be used to create 3D models.
Lidar sensors on the iPhone and iPad
In 2020, the inclusion of a LiDAR scanner in the iPhone 12 Pro made 3D scanning more accessible to the general public.
3D scan data used in construction sites
###Although companies considered adopting 3D scanning technology for scanning and sharing spaces, the need for specialized equipment meant it remained out of reach for many. Furthermore, general-purpose scanners were primarily used for measuring the shapes of terrain (in civil engineering) and large structures (in architecture), essentially as an extension of traditional surveying.
A Breakthrough Brought About by the Introduction of Scanat
Developed to support on-site surveys in fields such as architecture by utilizing the LiDAR sensor scanner built into the iPhone and iPadScanat was developed with the aim of supporting on-site survey work in fields such as architecture by utilizing the LiDAR sensor scanner built into iPhones and iPads. By incorporating feedback from a wide range of users across Japan, the app has earned high praise in settings where scanning, saving, and measuring spaces is necessary for on-site surveys and other tasks. Since its release in 2022, it has been adopted by over 550 companies in just under three years.
Organizer Information
nat has launched an AI surveying app that utilizes smartphone LiDAR sensors to address challenges in the digitization of spaces and objectsScanat , a service designed to solve challenges related to the digitization of spaces and objects.
Through tools and platforms that allow anyone to easily share the reality (3D) of everything in the world—from "spaces" to "objects"—we support increased productivity and the unleashing of creativity.
By creating products that transform daily work and life and implementing them in society, we aim to become an indispensable part of people’s lives and help realize a safe, secure, and prosperous society.
