Plinth – 3D Scanner for Art

Plinth — Beyond Digitization

Capture the physical world in true 48-megapixel detail and transform it into professional, watertight 3D models. Plinth combines advanced photogrammetry, smart image analysis, and next-generation export formats to deliver museum-quality results directly from your iPhone.

Professional-Grade Capture

Plinth's intelligent camera system analyzes focus, lighting, and motion in real time—guiding you toward perfect shooting conditions. Every capture leverages your iPhone Pro's full 48 MP sensor and records both RAW and HEIF for unmatched fidelity.

Photogrammetry Reinvented

Preview your model locally before final reconstruction. Define a precise bounding box to send only the data you need to the cloud—saving time, bandwidth, and ensuring professional-level control over every scan.

Cultural Heritage Precision

For paintings and reliefs, Plinth rebuilds the digital back of each capture to create a virtual frame, producing watertight models even when the back cannot be photographed. This feature was designed with museums and galleries to support accurate 3D preservation of cultural artifacts and flat artworks.

Expert Tools

Plinth goes far beyond standard 3D scanning apps.

• Smart Capture Analysis – automatic blur, lighting, and focus detection.

• Expert Mode – manually set polygon count, texture resolution, and mesh type.

• Realtime Editing – align, crop, and color-correct before export.

• Watertight Geometry – automatic closure of models with corrected UVs and material IDs.

Next-Generation Output

Plinth is the first mobile photogrammetry app to export AVIF-compressed textures, producing ultra-efficient, high-quality assets optimized for games, AR, and the web.

Export your creations in USDZ, GLB, or ZIP—ready for every workflow.
