Scan Engine Laurent
Scanning System Specs
Founded by Unit Image and located in Paris, Scan Engine offers body and face capture using a 192-camera rig setup.
The face scan setup includes 40 Canon 5DSR cameras (50.6 megapixels) and 205 LED lights equipped with both parallel and cross-polarized filters.
We can process textures up to 16K, and 4 Canon R5 cameras provide multi-angle OLAT references for look development.
Data Sample
Meet ‘Laurent’ a detailed example created in collaboration with Scan Engine, utilizing our cutting-edge tools, Hyperskin 2.0 and Hyperlook X. This project embodies our commitment to pushing texture quality to new heights, capturing lifelike skin details that make digital humans more realistic than ever.
High-resolution facial scan captured using a photogrammetry system by Scan Engine.
This sample features 8K or 16K resolution texture maps provided by Scan Engine. It includes cross-polarized diffuse maps (JPG and EXR formats), a specular map (EXR format), and a displacement map (EXR format).
The initial capture provides a highly detailed foundation, preserving the natural intricacies of human skin, from pores to fine wrinkles. With Scan Engine’s advanced photogrammetry rig, we start with an accurate base that’s ideal for further refinement.
Important note: Everything except for his skin has been composited over the original plate. In other words, only the skin should be considered as CG rendered.
Our system allows us to generate a completely new set of textures from your albedo and displacement maps, offering 12 additional maps, including displacement, utility, and masks. This process also boosts the level of detail, refining the finer features of each map for a more realistic result.
These additional maps allow you to refine your asset directly within your lookdev scene, creating endless possibilities and providing complete creative freedom for your artists!
Here’s a series of before-and-after renders showcasing the transformation process. The before images feature the raw scan and texture maps provided by ScanEngine, while the "after" images highlight the enhancements made using Symbiote's cutting-edge technologies: Hyperskin 2.0 and Hyperlook X.
