Capture 20-40 photos sequentially of a stationary subject, whether it be a person, place, or thing.

Use the iPhone, iPad, web, or desktop app to upload your photos to the Autodesk cloud where they are converted into realistic 3D models.

3D print your capture directly from the app! The 3D Print Utility will automatically heal and optimize your model to print on your MakerBot or Objet 3D printer.

Update posted June 12, 2013: This update (v.2.2.3.377) allows setup to use a proxy server to resolve login and upload issues caused by some network environments.
Also, the new Autodesk 3D Print Utility is now available from the "3D Print" menu item inside 123D Catch. Use the 3D Print Utility to optimize your model for printing; hollow the model to save print time and material, position the model to minimize the support material required (and see a preview of the support material!), and use adaptive thickening to adjust details that are otherwise too small to print.
System Requirements:
- Microsoft® Windows® 7 (32-bit and 64-bit), Microsoft® Windows® XP Service Pack 3 or higher (32-bit and 64-bit)
- Intel® Core™2Duo
- 1 GB RAM
- 1 GB free disk space
- OpenGL compatible video card (OpenGL version 1.3 recommended) with 256MB or more memory
- Internet connection
- Microsoft run-time libraries:
Under most circumstances, the necessary dynamically loadable libraries (DLLs) will be present on your Windows system. In the event that the 123D Catch installer reports a problem that you are missing required libraries, you can download and install them separately via:
- 32-bit systems: Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86)
- 64-bit systems: Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x64)
After doing so, you can successfully rerun your 123D Catch install. Our plan is to safeguard against this potential issue in a future update.
