Epic Games and Capturing Reality announced that RealityScan is now available for Android as well as for iOS devices, so almost anyone with a modern smartphone or tablet can use the app for free.
RealityScan allows users to create high-fidelity 3D models of objects by simply taking multiple pictures of them with their phone or tablet. Then, users can export their scans to Sketchfab to share with the community or download them for use in other applications like Unreal Engine or Twinmotion.
Please note that exporting your models to Sketchfab is free. The team added that the number of models you can upload to your Sketchfab account per month depends on a personal Sketchfab plan. The good news is that you’ll automatically be upgraded to Sketchfab Pro for free for one year on your first upload.
"Since we launched RealityScan as an iOS app last year, we’ve seen over 200,000 downloads, and many thousands of models created by the community and uploaded to Sketchfab," wrote the team.
Other improvements:
- A new step-based workflow takes you through the scanning process, and you can always back up through the steps if you need to make changes.
- Find and delete unconnected images from the Project Library, and optionally add new ones to replace them.
- Directly open a preview of the final model as it will look in Sketchfab from the Project Library, thanks to an embedded Sketchfab viewer.
- Add and edit a name and description for the project, which will be automatically synchronized to Sketchfab.
RealityScan requires an Android phone or tablet that supports ARCore, or an iPhone or iPad running iOS 16 and later. Learn more here.
