Crowdfunding News – Time to tell you about a new batch of interesting crowdfunding campaigns. Today I have 4 campaigns from Kickstarter, including scanning accessories for 3D printing enthusiasts, unique EDC projects, and more. enjoy!
Revopoint MINI 3D Scanner
what is it?
The Revopoint MINI 3D Scanner is a professional grade portable 3D scanner with high resolution industrial grade blue light, providing 0.05mm dot pitch, 0.02mm high precision and 10fps scanning speed.
why do i like it?
I love the Revopoint MINI 3D scanner because this scanner is so accurate that you can use it to make very fine jewelry and other intricate models. It’s like having your own Star Trek replicator!
Blue light scanners provide more accurate results, high resolution and less distortion than traditional scanners. The release of MINI is to better reach professional practitioners and consumers in related industries, such as reverse engineering, industrial measurement, jewelry design and other professional fields. In addition, blue light scanners are less sensitive to ambient light, enabling more detail even in lit environments, enabling more accurate 3D modeling at the touch of a button. The 3D point cloud maps the surface of the object with a point distance of 0.05mm and provides an ultra-detailed 3D model with an accuracy of 0.02mm, sufficient for professional inspection and analysis.
At The Gadgeteer, we’re already familiar with the Revopoint scanner since we just recently reviewed Revopoint Pop 2 3D High Precision Scanner. if you are serious 3D printing hobbythis scanner can make your models even better.
