Scanning service for ultra-photoreal materials
Imagine rendering photorealistic materials – without creating a single texture map or touching a single setting.
With our patented material scanning system and rendering plugin, VRscans introduces a new level of realism for visualizing materials in computer graphics.
The VRscans unique material format contains all the data you need to accurately render a material from any angle, in any lighting condition. With the VRscans plugin, you can load scanned materials directly into V-Ray – one of the world’s most popular physically-based rendering platforms.
VRscans materials are superior to standard BRDF approximations such as Blinn, Ward, and GGX. Instead of BRDF, VRscans implements BTF (bidirectional texture functions) to completely capture a material's true surface appearance, texture data, and unique response to light.
Scanned materials save time – every time
VRscans are ideal for industries where accurate materials are critical to design, presentation, and virtual prototyping.
PHOTOREAL MATERIALS
A new level of quality and accuracy for 3D rendered materials.
CREATIVE FREEDOM
Focus on your design without getting lost in technical settings.
FASTER WORKFLOW

READY TO RENDER
Leverage the power of V-Ray – the industry's leading rendering technology.
VRSCANS LIBRARY
Choose from a library with hundreds of physically-scanned materials.
KEY FEATURES
INCREDIBLY PHOTOREAL
VRscans are generated by capturing thousands of images, while others only capture 100. VRscans are often indistinguishable from the original sample.

PHYSICALLY ACCURATE
VRscans are created from physical data, capturing a material's bidirectional texture function (BTF). More advanced than a single point BRDF, VRscans recreate a material's true surface appearance and unique response to light.
EASY TO USE
VRscans materials are as easy as drag and drop.
SEAMLESSLY TILEABLE
VRscans materials repeat without seams.
CUSTOMIZABLE
Fine-tune the appearance of materials with the VRscans plugin.
BUILT FOR V-RAY
Render with V-Ray 3.4 or higher, the industry's leading renderer for product, design and architectural visualization.
PHYSICAL MATERIALS
Render a wide variety of physical materials including plastic, leather, stone, metal, wood, fabrics and more.
CAR PAINTS
Simulate the look of highly-detailed car paint, complete with orange peel and clear coat.
REFLECTIVE & HOLOGRAPHIC MATERIALS
Render highly-complex reflective materials and holographic materials.
TRANSLUCENT MATERIALS
The industry's first technology capable of scanning & rendering translucent materials.
VRSCANS LIBRARY
The VRscans Library contains over 550 pre-scanned materials ready to be applied to 3d visualizations in 3ds Max or Maya. The growing collection includes samples of car-paint, fabric, leather, wood, plastic, metal and more.
VRSCANS SERVICE
With the VRscans Service, we scan your physical material samples to create a highly accurate, ultra-photorealistic digital material for use in your 3D projects.
