External Display

Artec Leo allows to cast its screen to a browser. It means that you can have an additional display to observe a 3D scene. Another device needs to be connected to the same network as Leo scanner.

Note

Only screens with 3D content can be casted. To enable casting, you need to start scanning or open a project.

To cast your Leo screen, follow the steps:

  1. In the Projects screen, tap Settings.

  2. Select the Network section.

  3. Turn on the Cast screen to browser toggle.

  4. Locate the scanner’s IP address that appears near the toggle.

  5. Open a web browser on another device.

  6. Type in the Leo’s IP address and confirm your entry.

  7. On Leo, start scanning or open a project.
