Artec Eva Lite
Affordable 3D scanner for professional results
Eva Lite is the budget version of the bestselling white light Artec Eva 3D scanner. It features the same accuracy specs, but with reduced functionality: Eva Lite has geometry only tracking and capture. As a result, this affordable 3D scanner can be used for making high quality textureless 3D scans when scanning geometrically rich objects, such as the human body.
This makes Eva Lite an attractive and inexpensive option for healthcare clinics with a limited budget or indeed anyone who is interested in purchasing a professional white light 3D scanner with minimal funds.
Additionally, since Eva Lite does not capture color, it collects significantly less data. As a result, it is less power hungry and can be combined with a more affordable computer. See details on recommended makes and models in our support center or contact our support team for individual queries.
- Eva Lite can be upgraded to Eva at any point for the price difference between the two scanners.
So if the budget allows it at a later point, you can easily get the full functionality from your 3D scanner.
And for schools and universities, providing students with high tech professional equipment has now become even more affordable. As part of the Artec Educational Package, the price for Eva Lite is even more accessible and also includes 20 licenses of Artec Studio, two years free upgrade and a two year guarantee.

Got a question about Artec Eva Lite 3D scanner?
The main difference between Artec Eva and Eva Lite is that Eva Lite doesn’t capture the color of an object due to a disabled color camera. It can only capture the geometry of an object, and with half the 3D resolution, compared to Eva — 0.5 mm vs. 0.2 mm (in HD). Because color tracking is not available, it’s harder for Eva Lite to keep the track of an object while scanning, and it works best for objects that don’t have textured features, or unique or rich geometry. Also, there are a few differences in the software functionality. For example, «Auto-Alignment» of scans is not available for Eva Lite, as well as «Fine» and «Global Registration» for texture in Artec Studio and adding texture («Texturing») once the data has been captured.
The answer to this question will very much depend on the task you want to accomplish, the size and the geometry of the object that you need to scan, and the results you want to achieve. Unlike other Artec scanners, Eva Lite doesn’t capture the color of an object, so to scan the object successfully, the object itself must have unique and rich geometry so that the scanner can «see» and capture it from every angle. Make sure that the object you want to scan meets the following criteria, and check other parameters that are essential for you, such as the scanner’s recommended object size, accuracy, and resolution.

The answer to this question very much depends on what scanner/scanners you compare it to. Eva Lite is a budget version of Artec’s award-winning handheld 3D scanner Eva which is used by thousands of major companies worldwide. It features lots of the functionality of Eva which is sufficient for many applications, including healthcare, education, and research. At any point Eva Lite can be upgraded to Eva, which is capable of capturing a wider range of objects in color and at a higher resolution, sharpness, and quality (in HD Mode).
