3D Systems launches $399 Sense consumer 3D Scanner.
Apple reportedly buys Kinect sensor firm PrimeSense for $345 mln. Matterport taking pre-orders for 3D interior mapping camera. (13:46) Ben checks out the prints he created from his two successful scanning methods and discusses the benefits of the systems he came up with. He uses a white colored background and attempts to scan a mini-arcade machine. (08:02) Ben builds a mount for the scanner the moves around an object in a circle. (06:35) Ben takes a break from the project to teach you a quick lesson about the STL files that create 3D prints. (05:03) Ben sticks with having the scanner taped to the laptop, but tries scanning an object on a black platform. Plus, they suspend an object from the ceiling to get a better scan of the bottom of the object. (03:23) Ben and Rusty tape the scanner to the laptop to make the scanning process a little easier. (02:43) Ben has Rusty assist him in his second test, walking the scanner around a fixed object. (00:57) For his first test, Ben attempts to keep the scanner in a fixed location and rotate the object he's scanning. Cubify sense 3d scanner review how to#
Ben shows you how to build a rotational device for the scanner and shares what he learns about 3D scanning along the way. He attempts to scan a variety of objects with the Cubify Sense 3D scanner to discover how to get the most out of the device and to create the best prints possible. This week Ben takes his use of 3D printers to the next level and tries 3D scanning.
