Autodesk ReCap Pro: Turn the physical into digital

Reality capture and 3D scanning software

What is Autodesk ReCap Pro?

Autodesk ReCap Pro software helps designers and engineers capture high-quality, detailed models of real-world assets. Use ReCap Pro to:

    • Create 3D models from photographs or laser scans to transform real-world objects and environments into digital assets

  • Deliver a point cloud or mesh and collaborate across teams with existing conditions and as-built assets

    • Leverage cloud-based workflows to efficiently update, extract features, and manage files in the cloud

     

    In addition to a subscription, you need Autodesk Flex tokens to process ReCap data (cloud) services such as Scan to Mesh and ReCap Photo projects. Learn more.
