Decor Industry & PBR

METIS scanners are designed with the specific needs of the decor market. By combining innovative software with cutting-edge technologies, one device can provide a number of outputs. For example:

2D COLOR SCAN: with extended customization over the lighting in order to provide the required visual appearance and Maximize the appealing qualities of the scanned materials;
3D DATA GENERATION: METIS scanners are the only devices in the market capable of providing suitable 3D data for even the most demanding Decor applications and in perfect register with 2D color information. Using METIS unique implementation of the 3D Photometric Stereo principles, our scanners can generate high-resolution 3D data directly from the 2D color information, removing the need for a dedicated 3D capture device and ensuring that the color and texture of the object is always in perfect register. METIS 3D data are suitable for many different applications as cylinder or press-plate engraving, ceramic tiles embossing and digital printing with embossing capabilities, etc.;

GLOSSINESS DATA GENERATION: Another feature totally unique to METIS scanners, the generation of specular data opens the door to a plethora of new possibilities. From the ability to easily create a spot channel for varnish or metallic printing layers, to being able to accurately model reflective qualities in CGI.

Customers are already using METIS technology in many different sectors of the decor market, particularly design firms and internal design departments in wood and laminate flooring, ceramic, wallpaper, textile, the engraving of press plates and cylinders, digital printing, fine-art reproduction, CAD, and 3D service providers.
