Artec Studio 12.1.6.16 (13.06.2018)
Fixed issues: the ones, that caused scanning malfunction on some laptops and the ones, related to non-latin symbols in the filenames:
- Application could not initialize scanner, when launched by the Windows-user with such usernames
- Artec Studio was unable to save projects with the filenames featuring those kinds of symbols.
Note: in this scenario, set the corresponding language in your system locale, as it's shown on this picture.
Artec Studio 12.1.5.1 (21.05.2018)
Fixed issues
- A special fix for the latest Windows 10 update (1803 build 17134), causing the issue of Artec 3D scanner not being detected in Artec Studio.
Artec Studio 12.1.3.1 (23.04.2018)
Fixed issues
- A fix for KB4093112 Windows 10 update for a Wacom MobileStudio Pro 16'' tablet: NVIDIA Quadro is selected as a preferred videocard.
Artec Studio 12.1.1.12 (16.08.2017)
New features
- Artec Installation Center now installs into the Program Files folder rather than into Program Files (x86)
Fixed Issues

- Fixed miscellaneous issues related to license renewal workflow and reactivation after user switching.
Artec Studio 12.1.0.478 (14.06.2017)
New features
- New global registration algorithm: up to 20 times faster than in Artec Studio 11 and up to 10 times faster than in Artec Studio 12.0
- Increased scanning speed in multicapture
- Editor tools (except for Texture-healing brush) now allow undo/redo operations directly inside them
- The Apply button is back in Texture-healing brush
- Hot keys added: G and L for the Show grid and the Lighting commands, respectively
Fixed Issues
- 3D manipulator in Defeature brush now remembers its adjusted size
- Fixed an issue that caused algorithms to disable when entering the Tools panel just after Autopilot finishes
- Addressed an issue that could cause the "Logic error exception" error to occur during Global registration.
- Texture-adjustment settings applied by Autopilot will no longer reset when entering the Adjust texture panel.
Removed options
- "Detect key frames" from the Scan context menu
- "Enable Stereo mode" from the View menu
Known Issues
"Invert selection" or Ctrl+Alt+A may not cause rendering a correct set of available commands in the Tools panel.
Artec Studio 12.0.2.188 (24.04.2017)
Algorithms
Base removal
- Smarter automatic base removal: detects and erases the base as well as all surfaces below the base
- Same algorithm now handles "Base selection" mode in Editor
Global registration is now several times faster—a particular advantage for large projects containing lots of 3D data.
New auto-sensitivity for Eva scanner
- Eliminates need to tune this feature manually (slider hides itself)
- Provides more-robust tracking on hard-to-scan surfaces
- Produces almost no 3D noise
Note: Sensitivity adjustment for Spider remains unchanged
Memory management
- New setting compacts memory automatically after each algorithm finishes
- Added enhanced project compression for compact data storage (lossy compression, configurable)
Eraser
- Scans can be selected and deselected during editing
- "Deselect" button added
Usability
Improved user experience throughout the program:
- Added progress bar to the application icon in the Windows taskbar
- All Editor brushes now apply actions iteratively, allowing Undo/Redo of each step
- Application automatically selects all scans when you open the Align panel
- "Export mesh" dialog is more consistent; it now remembers the most recently used format
- Scan panel hides itself automatically during scanning (can be toggled)
- Tools panel reveals algorithm options when you click either its name or the arrow (Expand) button.
- Scan selection in the Workspace panel is now more intuitive
- Scan names in the Workspace panel now assigned on the basis of the scanner type (for Eva and Spider; can be toggled)
New hot keys added:
- F for Fit to view
- H for Home
- Ctrl+Shift+E for Export mesh
3Dconnexion support
Added support for 3Dconnexion manipulators
Measurements
CSV and XML export files for measurements now contain volume and square fields.
Renamed and relocated options
- "Depth of field" moved to the "Advanced" section of the Scan panel
- "Continue scanning from scans selected in workspace" renamed as "Auto-align new scans with those marked in Workspace"
- "Remesh" renamed as "Isotropic remesh"
- "Texture" panel:
- "Generate triangles map" is now called "Preview"
- "Generate texture atlas" is now called "Export"
- "Use existing UV" is now called "Export (reuse UV map)"
- "Radius" parameter removed from Fast Fusion
- Arrow (Expand) moved left in Tools panel.
Compatibility information
- AS12 is compatible with all Artec scanners except the discontinued ones from these series.
- Drivers for Artec Eva / Spider / Space Spider in AS9, AS10, AS11 and AS12 are totally compatible.
- Artec Studio 12 is installed in a separate folder, so various software versions (AS9, 10, 11 and 12) can be kept at the same computer.
- AS9, AS10 and AS11 projects are fully compatible with AS12.
Known issues
- Scanning with Real-time fusion is unavailable for AMD Radeon graphics cards running driver version 21.19.5XX (17.3.3); use version 21.19.1XX (16.10.1) instead.
- Pressing F7, F8 or F9 when scanning or during algorithm execution may cause the application to crash.
- “Add scanner type” checkbox only works for Eva and Spider scanners.
- Voxel size spinner in the Performance tab of the Settings dialog disappears; move the Data-compression level slider to reveal it.
- The application doesn’t save Texture-healing and Defeature brush sizes (3D selection) after closing their panels.
