Sardauscan a open source sub 30$ 3D laser scanner
here is a sub 30$ 3D laser scanner. (see instruction for BOM)
even 12$ if you already have a hercule HD twist.
you just need a arduino nano, 1 to 4 line laser and a micro geared stepper (288YJ-48)
no external power needed. just 2 free usb port on your pc.
the application and arduino firmware are still in developpement.
the code is inspired from freelss and many other open source project. It has been totaly rewrite in c# winforms.
The application is articulated around “task” (scan, open/save file , filters, average, smooth , merge, save, etc).
you will be allowed to create a process by associated some task .
As i exemple i’ve uploaded a sample of a typical scan process :
scan => remove noise => smooth => average laser => build mesh => save to stl
but you will be allowed to add/remove/ tweak each task. event build your own (plugins maybee)
