Compared to 3D scanning solutions that require specialized equipment, PartCrafter demonstrates three core advantages:
| comparison dimension | PartCrafter | Traditional 3D scanning |
|---|---|---|
| input device (computer) | Normal Cell Phone Camera | Laser/Structured Light Scanners |
| Editorial flexibility | Native support for part-level modifications | Need to do grid segmentation first |
| implicit architecture treatment | AI-based speculation of the complete structure | Captures only visible surfaces |
Typical Scenario Advantages
- Conceptual design phase: Generate 3D prototypes directly based on sketches
- Restoration of historical artifacts: Reconstruction of the mutilated parts based on photographs only
- telecommunication: Sharing editable 3D data through 2D photos
However, for millimeter precision industrial designs, scanner + manual repair is still an irreplaceable solution.
