Dot3D Prime
Professional 3D scanning without boundaries.
Dot3D Prime is our most comprehensive mobile scanning solution, designed for professionals who require maximum hardware flexibility and survey-grade accuracy. Whether you’re on iOS, Android, or Windows, Dot3D Prime has you covered with full support for:
✅ 3D scanning from Windows & Android devices¹
✅ External depth cameras: Orbbec & RealSense²
✅ Real-time RTK/GNSS (Trimble, Leica, Emlid, etc.)³
✅ Transferable licensing (via “release key” function)
¹Windows/Android scanning requires an external 3D camera (Orbbec, RealSense).
²Orbbec and RealSense depth cameras both require Windows or Android OS.
³Dot3D Prime’s real-time RTK/GNSS functionality requires iOS (iPhone Pro / Pro Max).

Why Dot3D Prime?
While Dot3D Pro is optimized specifically for integrated LiDAR on iOS, Dot3D Prime unlocks the full potential of the Dot3D ecosystem across all major operating systems and high-performance external sensors.
1. Cross-Platform Freedom (Windows & Android)
Don't be locked into a single ecosystem. Dot3D Prime brings professional-grade 3D scanning to Windows and Android tablets and phones. Experience the same industry-leading real-time reconstruction and local processing on the mobile hardware your organization already utilizes.
2. Support for External 3D Cameras
Unlock superior detail and range by connecting professional external depth sensors. Dot3D Prime provides plug-and-play support for:
Intel® RealSense™: D455, D456, D415, and L515.
Orbbec: High-performance 3D cameras for specialized applications.
DPI Kits: The engine behind the world-renowned DotProduct DPI handheld scanners.
3. Survey-Grade GNSS Integration
Stop settling for "close enough." Dot3D Prime features real-time integration with external high-accuracy RTK GNSS solutions. Automatically geo-reference your scans and improve global accuracy as you walk.
Supported Hardware: Leica FLX100 plus, Emlid Reach RX/RX2, Trimble DA2 (Catalyst), and more.
Instant Results: View your scan’s precise global coordinates in real-time—no post-processing or manual alignment required.
4. Transferable "Release Key" Licensing
We understand that equipment needs change. Dot3D Prime features a flexible licensing model. Use the exclusive "Release Key" option to easily deactivate your license on one device and move it to another. This ensures your investment stays mobile and adaptable across your entire organization.
Accuracy under your control.
Add coded targets to your scenes for automatic accuracy improvement via precise loop closure.
Apply known constraints for additional accuracy improvement and geo-referencing. Add target-to-target measurements, survey control points, wall-to-wall measurements, and more.

Dot3D PRO
$349 / yr
Professional 3D scanning for devices equipped with embedded 3D depth cameras (iOS LiDAR).
Dot3D PRIME
$999 / yr
Comprehensive solution for 3D scanning from external cameras (Windows, Android) or with external GNSS (iOS).
Dot3D FREE
$0 / yr
Start with a Free 7-day trial (all-access). Continue with unlimited testing but no exporting.
-
Get started today with just an iPhone Pro (12 & up) or iPad Pro (2020 & up) with built-in LiDAR. If you prefer to start with a Windows or Android device, you’ll need an Intel RealSense or DPI external camera. The software trial is free on all platforms.
-
Pro is our most popular option for most iPhone/iPad users relying solely on their embedded LiDAR camera (iOS). Prime is a premium solution for leveraging external 3D cameras on Windows/Android or external GNSS receivers (i.e. Trimble DA2) on iOS.
-
YES! The use of coded targets (AprilTags) is one of the most important capabilities of Dot3D. Please click here to download Dot3D AprilTags for printing, and see here for several tutorials on their use. You also have the option to order a rugged set here.
-
Don’t worry! No automatic charges will occur. Once your trial ends, you’ll automatically revert back to FREE mode, still allowing scanning and testing, but with some limited functionality and NO EXPORTS. You may then upgrade to PRO or PRIME anytime.
