Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement and a method for manufacturing custom objects, for instance dental restorations such as dental prostheses, bridges, crowns, caps, inlays, onlays, implants, abutments or other dental products. The arrangement comprises a device for scanning a model of a dental restoration or other custom object, control means (2) for the scanning device, online server (3) and manufacturing facilities (4). The scanning is performed by means of a self contained computer-automated photo unit (1) for taking a series of photographs for capturing the three-dimensional surface of the custom object to provide a passive 3D reconstruction of the object. Each photo unit (1) has a private wifi network (5) and is controlled by any kind of connected device such as mobile phone, tablet, personal computer, connected watches, interne browser or similar control means (2).

Abstract: A device and a method for three-dimensional digitisation of a human peripheral cephalic portion, in particular including at least part of the face, includes a hollow opaque shell (18) having an opening (25) suitable for receiving the head of a human subject, and forming a photographic chamber incorporating and supporting a plurality of cameras fixed in the photographic chamber and oriented towards the opening, and a lighting device fixed in the photographic chamber and adapted to light the opening and at least part of the peripheral cephalic portion of the head of a human subject placed therein with a homogeneous and controlled light.
