Good afternoon everyone,
and now a comparison: the same vase scanned with the new POP3 and the scan made with POP2

Good afternoon again,
I post another test with POP3 (with RevoScan 5.0.6 for Mac and Macbook pro with i7 and RevoScan 5.04 for IOS with iPhone 14 plus)
I scanned (re-scanned) an antique sculpture, about 70 cm high.
I made it in with RevoScan 5.04 for IOS with iPhone 14 plus. I proceeded as follows: scanned a portion of the surface, stopped and processed, then reopened and restarted the scan, added another portion, closed again, processed, reopened, and so on. It never lost tracking and the added portions aligned perfectly with the pre-existing portion: WOW!!!
Then I downloaded the project to the Macbook and performed all the fusing, editing, cleaning and etc. operations there. One note for meshing: in the latest version of RevoScan set to maximum (6) the result was a bit too smooth compared to the previous version. So, I exported the point cloud and then meshed with Meshlab and the result is as shown.
Below are pictures and the final result (amazing!):

Good afternoon everyone,
I post the first test with POP3 (with RevoScan 5.0.5 for Mac and Macbook pro with i7)
I scanned a metal alloy sculpture (early 20th century) of dark grey colour, about 30 cm high.
I made a series of partial scans (edited and cleaned), which I merged in RevoScan and subsequently created the mesh.
Below is a photo of the sculpture and some pictures of the process and the final result:

Good afternoon again,
I post another test with POP3 (with RevoScan 5.0.5 for Mac and Macbook pro with i7)
I scanned an antique British jar, sculpted and painted (Wedgwood style), about 25 cm high.
I made it in only one scan: the jug was placed on the turntable and scanning was done by gradually raising the POP3 on the tripod.
All processes (editing, cleaning, meshing, texture optimization) were made into RevoScan 5.05
Below are pictures of the process and the final result, with and without texture:

Good morning everyone,
I post another test with POP3 (with RevoScan 5.0.8 for Mac and Macbook pro with i7)
I scanned an Antique Chinese Porcelain Dish e with rich textured colour decoration, about 12 cm in diameter.
I made only one scan using turntable (and then edited and cleaned), which I fused, edited and cleaned with RevoScan and subsequently created the mesh and textured.
Below is a photo of the dish and some pictures of the process and the final result:

I scanned a Bacchus Bronze sculpture with rich textured colour, about 15 cm high.
I made only one scan using turntable (and then edited and cleaned), which I fused, edited and cleaned with RevoScan and subsequently created the mesh and textured.

Hey dfodaro!

Would you be able to explain in more details how you get such amazing result with Meshlab and give a step by step?

Hi Tom,
Thanks for your appreciation
In this case I imported the point cloud from RevoScan in Meshlab and there only created the mesh (no other editing)

Here a link to my old post were is explained my workflow in Meshlab (I hope useful for you)

Museal Mount-Making for Sculpture
Good morning everyone,
today I present an application of work in the field of cultural heritage:
Mount-making for museum display.
This is an ancient Indian sculpture that does not have a base for displaying (and holding) it.
The 3D scan was made with POP3 (the achievable quality is evident from the images).
With the 3D model, I made the support interface between the irregular surface of the original and the mount. All the mount-making elements were created with Meshmixer. The next step will be to make a physical prototype (to be 3D printed) that can be used to do tests on the original sculpture.
Below are images illustrating the project:

Hello everyone!
I’ll show you an update

I show you the 3D printed prototypes of the museum mounts of this series of sculptures.

The large (and heavy) head was scanned with the POP3, the small one with the Revopoint MINI.

These functional prototypes were used to verify that they “work”.

With this solution the sculptures can be displayed by positioning them vertically in the showcase by simply placing them on the mounts (no constraints or permanent adhesives are necessary).

From these prototypes, the definitive mounts will be created, in other materials, for display in the museum’s showcases.
