An Arduino-based 3D scanner was created by an industrious 3D printing enthusiast and released open source this week for all to enjoy. This open source project was made to take out the most ...

It seems to make sense. If you have a 3D printer, you might wish you could just scan some kind of part and print it — sort of like a 3D photocopier. Every time we think about this, though, we watch a ...

U.S. researchers have developed a camera chip that could give smartphones the ability to take 3D scans of everyday objects, a sought-after feature in the 3D-printing world. Engineers at the California ...

There are multiple apps that use the iPhone to perform 3D scanning of objects, but most of them require a LiDAR scanner (distance measuring sensor) and cannot be used on models that do not have a ...

The Revopoint Miraco is a 3D scanner that handles everything internally, so there's no need to be tethered to a computer, and ...

It requires significant effort to create 3D models from scratch. Fortunately, 3D scanners have greatly expedited this process, saving valuable time and energy that would otherwise be spent on manual ...

I have been 3D printing for a while now, and throughout, I have created my files for 3D printing using a 3D modeling program, as well as occasionally downloading them from 3D printing websites. It ...

I have a question about 3D scanning devices: Why aren't they easier to access? Today a project by Thomas Megel made the rest of the handheld smart device universe look silly by comparison. With ...

If you are searching for a 3D scanner capable of not only scanning small items such as coins but also large items as big as a car. You might be interested in the new THREE 3D scanner designed and ...
