I've been using high-end industrial 3D scanners at work for 20+ years. The Revopoint POP is a consumer level 3D scanner that has high end features. It has dual IR sensors, IR projector, and a color texture map camera. It does feature or target stitching of accumulated scans. The frame rate is 8FPS. It can be used freehand with a smart phone (no target tracking with iPhone because of WIFI bandwidth). In my test, the FOV was 120mm x 95mm at approximately 210mm. It comes with a targeted turntable, and the software is easy to use. You can export points or polygonal files in OBJ, PLY, or STL formats. They specify that the single scan accuracy is up to 0.3mm. My tests show this is pretty true for small objects on the turn table. Unfortunately the point spacing was 0.5-0.6mm, so sharp edges and details are not captured. This scanner is great for art work and piece without sharp detail. It's not quite ready for reverse engineering. Revopoint has another Kickstarter for a Pop2 sensor that is suppose to have 0.1mm accuracy and 0.15mm point spacing.
Things used:
* Revopoint Pop 3D scanner ( amzn.to/3Gx7rau )
* Magnaflux Spotcheck ( amzn.to/33ayav7 )
* 1 inch step block ( amzn.to/336Kg8y )
* 3-2-1 block ( amzn.to/3IEddZO )
* Pool ball ( amzn.to/3oGnnRW )
