3D scanning thread

Here's a pretty good one: http://vcg.isti.cnr.it/~dellepiane/3_3DScanning.pdf It may not have all the latest entrants into the market, but it's a start.

Andrew, I've been following your website for quite sometime. It is a great asset. Thank you for all you do

Bump!
We just ordered a David SLS-1 (for an urgent project; we know -2 is due in weeks but can't wait that long, and -2 smallest size is 60mm vs. 10mm with -1). time permitting will be posting notes here. Anyone with questions please ask here or by pm.

The handheld Fuel3D scanner release seems imminent...

By the way I'm selling my David SLS -1 kit for 1350, and shipping is free inside EU.

...unless you can get your hands on a high-resolution 3D scanner that does it in a single instantaneous click.

There'll be much fun to be had when Mike releases that black prototyping resin.

I have a David scanner and have been successful scanning larger items. While it can be done, it may not be the best method for scanning small items like a ring.


This is the scanner I want:

X-ray computed tomography should be ideal creating printable 3D content:
9 micro pixel size
no problems with shadows

The eora 3D scanner just got activated on Kickstarter as of this post.

Uses a recent-model Android or iPhone to do most of the heavy lifting while a green laser sweeps the model.

I'm using a home-brew David Scanner with structured light as opposed to the laser. The new David hardware/software unit has (according to their newsletter) a faster camera, so live subjects are more easily scanned than before.

Usually the subjects I scan are life-casts, or portrait sculptures that are re-meshed cleaned up, etc in ZBrush.

I ended up having to make a 2-axis scanning yoke, as a turntable was not letting me see up people's nostrils. It's not automated, its important to see where shadows fall to get a good scan, and pre-set increments of x degrees won't cut it.



The David scanner, and the B9 are a great match.



Both have become integral to our work-flow. The B-9 has eliminated a lot of service bureau headaches.

Great looking stuff. Bravo.

Thank you for posting.
That is so cool.
I look forward to the time I can use it for my work flow.

This just hit Kick starter today there are still some lower prices to take advantage of although it is
fully funded in a matter of hours.

Hey,

One of my friends is looking for 3D scanning services for his business purpose for a very long time, but not found any company which provides 3D scanning service at an affordable price.,
So, please tell me some companies with contact details for him???
Thank you in advance.
