We played with one of these yesterday in my Vienna class: http://www.artec3d.com/3d_scanners_for_professionals/artec-mht/ The software was a bit flaky. Would crash if you tried to scan, process, save. Stable if you scanned, saved, reopened later for processing. Worked easily and well, otherwise. The folks here have only just begun using it, so no accuracy info. I attach my own mug from yesterday for your consideration. Open in meshlab (http://meshlab.sourceforge.net/). -ds On 3/19/13 2:36 AM, [email protected] wrote: > > ----- Forwarded message from Aki Watanabe <[email protected]> ----- > > Date: Mon, 18 Mar 2013 11:18:15 -0400 > From: Aki Watanabe <[email protected]> > Reply-To: Aki Watanabe <[email protected]> > Subject: Hand-held scanners > To: [email protected] > > Hi everyone, > > My advisor is interested in purchasing a handheld 3D surface scanner to > digitize specimens while traveling.
