About RealityScan

RealityScan reconstructs 3D models from sets of photographs and laser scans. The desktop application, formerly RealityCapture, reached version 2.2 in June 2026 with full AMD GPU support on Windows, and there is a workflow for 360 camera footage.

RealityScan Mobile is a free phone app for capturing, reviewing, processing and sharing scans without a desktop. Epic provides sample datasets, tutorials and documentation. Desktop licensing terms are on the website.

Strengths

  • Handles both photos and laser scan data
  • GPU-accelerated reconstruction, including AMD GPUs
  • Free mobile app for capture on a phone
  • Sample datasets and tutorials

Limitations

  • Desktop version is for Windows
  • Old RealityCapture pay-per-input licences needed migrating after the legacy server closed

Alternatives to RealityScan

Compare all

Software that can replace RealityScan for an important use case, and what changes if you switch.

  • COLMAP

    Photogrammetry pipeline that turns a set of photographs into camera poses and a dense 3D model.

    COLMAP is free, BSD-licensed photogrammetry on Windows, macOS and Linux with GUI and command-line tools, but it lacks laser scan input and a mobile capture app.

  • Meshroom

    Arrange image and 3D processing tasks as connected nodes.

    Meshroom is free MPL-2.0 node-based image and 3D processing software for Windows and Linux that caches intermediate results, with capabilities depending on installed plugins.

  • KIRI Engine

    A 3D scanning app that builds models from phone photos, LiDAR and Gaussian splatting.

    KIRI Engine captures objects with phone photogrammetry, LiDAR and Gaussian splatting on Android, iOS and the web, with processing done by the service rather than your own machine.

  • Polycam

    A 3D scanning app that turns phone captures and drone footage into 3D models and floor plans.

    Polycam captures objects, interiors and sites with a phone or drone footage and generates floor plans and measurements, as a proprietary service with paid plans.

  • WebODM

    Turn aerial photographs into maps and 3D reconstructions.

    WebODM is free AGPL software aimed at aerial photographs, producing maps, point clouds, elevation data and textured models, self-hosted or on the web.
