Not all 3D scanning is alike, and the right workflow can depend on the object involved. [Ding Dong Drift] demonstrates this in his 3D scan of a project car. His goal is to design custom attachments, ...

3D scanners are becoming more popular than ever. One of the main reasons for this is the growing desire of humans to create and replicate three-dimensional objects. Whether you're an architect looking ...

There has been an increase in the availability of affordable 3D scanners these last few years, largely down to the use of structured light technology in such scanners. Traditional 3D scanners use ...

The concept of a 3D scanner can seem rather simple in theory: simply point a camera at the physical object you wish to scan in, rotate around the object to capture all angles and stitch it together ...

3D scanners are used across a wide range of industries and applications due to their ability to capture the physical dimensions of objects and environments quickly and accurately, enabling their ...

Like many people, I have been preparing files for 3D printing using 3D modeling programs or downloading them from 3D model ...

What are Blue Light 3D Scanners? Structured light 3D scanners, typically mounted on a camera stand, robot, or tripod, function as point-and-shoot cameras and need little or no programming with minimal ...

James has been writing about technology for years but has loved it since the early 90s. While his main areas of expertise are maker tools -- 3D printers, vinyl cutters, paper printers, and laser ...

With built-in computing, all you need is a web browser to access the controls of this portable 3D scanner, and I love the ...

Mayo Clinic researchers have developed and tested a new 3D surface scanning approach that gives neurosurgeons even greater ...
