3D Scan Forum

That's really a nice scan. My compliments for the exhaust manufacturing!
Why do you reverse it?

It would be nice to have a video of the scanning process

I started with David/HP scanner, than I sell the license and cameras and moved to a DIY RangeVision.
It's not far from you budget, if you find offers in the projector.

Search for my posts or for RangeVision in this forum.

As always you make clean works!
no matter the tool.
Well, I can imagine getting a good scan now requires tons of effort less than with David / HP.

I already tried moving the lens outward in my lg pf50, it's a good idea for macro.
I like the idea of adding a diaphragm.

Dentists use intraoral scanners, which are good for object of the dimension of a teeth. If the objects are movable industrial X-ray CT will give you everything you need at higher resolution. you just need to find a service in the nearby. A medical CT would be enough for your resolution request. How ...

using markers can help assessing this issue, if you stick it in the revolving base.

I succeded in using Beck's approach with AutoIt.
It was just for fun, since I soon moved to RV. You can code the angle and whatever.
Nowaday it would be more interesting to work on the microntroller code for the RV and Flex to make it a 2-3 axis such as martan did.

Anyway, RV also can be a good software if you can deal with some of its major limitations (specially camera choice limitation). but I always prefer FlexScan3D as a very engineered and professional software.

You should also read all of my more recent post.
Take your time.

Actually RV has some big limitations: 1- very limited camera choice (only accept some Daheng cameras) 2- Russian language 3- the type of marker which it use (only a circle dot, so sometimes it detect wrong markers) 4- very special calibration panel 5- and I think not good support for out of Russia ...
