Can the open-source idea also be applied to the business aspect? Why do we open up hardware and code, but rarely talk about money? I opened up the business side and let people decide on how much to pay: blog.openscan.eu/posts/opens…

I'm quite excited about this piece of hardware, but also about something new we're trying: for a limited time, it's "choose your price" you

My most accurate 3D Scan to date. This was done on a stock OpenScan Mini + Macro addon. Not sure what to scan next to push the limit even further. Any ideas?

You don't need an expensive 3D scanner. Your phone can be the camera. This is the idea behind photogrammetry. You simply take a bunch of pictures of an object from different angles. Then OpenScan processes those images and reconstructs the object as a 3D representation. No expensive 3D scanner needed.

PSA: never leave your keys unattended ;) I am still testing the new macro add-on for the openscan mini and classic but so far this seems very promising!

Except for a literally handful of parts, this new 3d scanner can be build from the existing OpenScan Mini/Classic

I just updated the 3D Scan Benchmark Repo on Github to include the 15cm ScanBench. I also automated most of the pipeline, so it is much easier to add a new scan now. more details: github.com/OpenScanEu/OpenSc…

Bad exposure = bad scans. The fix takes 5 seconds if you know how to read the histogram. New blog post up on openscan.blog. We cover what to look for, why ETTR works, and how to dial it in with the OpenScan3 firmware. openscan.eu/blogs/news/under…

Not the fun part of this project: prices on parts and kits go up on May 7. We've kept them stable since 2022, but component costs, shipping, and tariffs have moved enough that we can't hold the line any longer.
