Online, September 17, 2009 (Newswire.com) - Creaform Makes a Move Towards Democratizing its 3D Scanning Technology
THE COMPANY LAUNCHES A NEW SCANNER AND MAKES ITS HANDYSCAN 3D LASER SCANNERS MORE
AFFORDABLE THAN EVER

Levis, September 15, 2009 - Creaform, developer and manufacturer of the
Handyscan 3D line-up of handheld, self-positioning and portable laser scanners, is proud
to present the UNIscan, the latest and most affordable addition to this family of
revolutionary 3D scanners.

Handyscan 3D performance at half the price
Starting at US$28,900, this scanner is positioned as the entry-level model of the line-up.
The UNIscan offers equal resolution and speed of acquisition and an accuracy of up to
80 µm in addition to all the well-known Handyscan 3D benefits: self-positioning, true
portability, versatility and ease of use. Plus, the UNIscan comes with VxScan Express, a
version of Creaform's proprietary data acquisition software offering fewer
functionalities.

"Since the launch of the Handyscan 3D scanners line-up, Creaform has been striving to
democratize and promote the use of 3D scanning in numerous industrial, multimedia
and medical applications, said Charles Mony, president of Creaform. We are really
happy to open 3D scanning to a wider community by simplifying it, without giving up on
the performance, quality, concepts and technology that made the Handyscan 3D
scanners so successful."

Wide range of applications
The UNIscan's range of applications and target industries is as diversified as that of its
fellow scanners. The most economical Handyscan 3D scanner is perfectly suited for
applications of reverse engineering, styling, design, artwork scanning, multimedia
contents creation, 3D archiving, packaging design, rapid prototyping and heritage
preservation.
