Chapter 1 : UNBOXING
As you already know I become a Beta tester for the new Revopoint’s 3d scanner MINI
The package arrived very quick and as usual with the same accessories .
In the box I got the MINI 3D scanner , 2 T-shirt , turntable ( same as the one that came with POP and a letter .
Here is the content of the package , same as usual but the Bust is only 67mm , very MINI
also what different is the tripot , it has shorter legs that can be expanded .
A new Calibration board , but at this moment calibration is not yet functional , my MINI also missing the RGB camera since it is just a prototype and actually a sample .
There is also phone holder, one Micro-B to USBA, MicroB to USB-C and Mobile connector with MicroB to USBA-power and USB-C data cable .
Phone scanning with a phone is not currently supported , since MINI needs lots of horsepower to run , and the best right now are computers with at least 16GB of RAM , MINI scanning a lot of data compared to POP2.
The Blue Light from MINI shine on the small bust , it is not recommend to shine it into eyes .
Here my 2 MINIs together
I must say that I did not encounter any issues since I got it , the tracking is so much better and the scans are smooth , it is much easier to track no matter on turntable or hand held.
It is amazing device with a high accuracy of single frame at 0.02mm and resolution ( pitch point at 0.02mm)
While testing the new Revo Scan software I came to conclusion that 0.1mm for resolution was much too low with that accuracy , so the Revopoint programmers increased it to 0.05mm and let me run some tests to see how it works in practice on my side, the results was sooooo good . Of course we are all hungry for the small details so they go down to maximum 0.02mm and finally we hit the sweet spot .
The software improves still and also great new feature is that the CPU do not run anymore at 98%, it is now at 10/12% while scanning , so also great improvement .
Also the “MAKE SURE TO EXIT” button is gone so no more jokes about that one in the future .
MINI is not a replacement for POP2 , it is truly amazing for a very small objects , you can still scan a face or hands in amazing details to the pores , bit that is , there is no full body scanning with this one , the scanning distance is very small from 10-20 cm only so the scanning window is very minimal .
Here coupon of examples of a very small objects I scanned in the process while testing .
No denoiser meshed at 6
19mm
I printed the 3D scan if the ring 1:1 copy
Also forgot to add that the gain is also now lower , so no more ND filter will be needed
This is finally 1:1 copy of the original figure with each detail included .
I am doing today a new showcase with a very small objects , so stay tuned
if you have any questions feel free to ask .
well Alan , I am not here to sell you anything , but I would not miss the one time offer from upcoming Kickstarter , you will never get anything at that KS price range .
