RV 3D Studio 2025.0 - all scanners in one software

For some time after the release of the new handheld laser RangeVision Helix 3D scanner, it could only be used with a special release in 2024, in which work with our stationary scanners was unavailable. Now there is no need for a separate software version — all current models are supported in the new RV 3D Studio 2025.0.

In addition to this major achievement, the new release has brought together dozens of improvements and fixes: eliminating incorrect program behavior in some cases, optimizing and improving the stability of the scanning process, updating the program interface.


Updated launcher

Added:

  • Support for handheld and stationary scanners in one software is implemented
  • The functionality of hot keys has been expanded and a full list of them has been added to the “Help” section
  • The RV brand logo has been brought back to the software icon
  • Added the ability to turn off lasers from the Helix scanner software
  • Added functionality for saving a project via the “Save project as…” dialog
  • Added functionality for hiding marker base grids in the 3D-scene
  • Added export of point clouds in the following formats: obj, ply, off, ptx, sc3d


When working with the Helix scanner, you can now lower the brightness of the lasers to 0 and disable the display of reference networks in the scene

  • Improved performance when working with large numbers of markers on Helix
  • Improved stability of marker detection on Helix
  • Improved base grid scanning mode for Helix
  • Increased 3D-scene rendering speed
  • The launcher appearance has been redesigned
  • Text of hints in Setup Wizard and Calibration has been reworked
  • The process of checking for updates and updating software has been optimized

  • Removed fictitious CPU load when the “Turbo” option is active on tabs that do not use camera images


Updated Setup Wizard

Fixed:

  • Fixed issues with setting points in manual registration mode
  • Implemented an option that solves the issue with 3D-scene artifacts on AMD Radeon graphic cards
  • Fixed a discrepancy between markings on camera views and tips in the Setup Wizard
  • Fixed turnable axis evaluation bug for Neopoint
  • Fixed software crash when trying to stop scanning
  • Fixed software crash when double-clicking the “Snap” button during calibration
  • Fixed software crash when pressing the “Start Scanning” button multiple times
