Hi! The Range looks awesome, and the scans that you shared here are amazing! Do you think that it will be possible to use several scanners together so you can scan a bigger object faster? And it will be possible to have an sdk in order to integrate them in our own software? This will be great too! We are looking for a scanner like this, so tomorrow we will be keeping an eye to the kickstarter page…
Hi @Raul
Thank you , the new prototype of Range deliver much more finer details than the one I showed in this showcase was was the first prototype . This mean the smaller parts will get better results
Today you can see the new showcases in the forum with new prototype examples .
I am preparing my new showcase thread today and will update my showcase models day long showing new examples .
Right now it is impossible to use multiple scanners at once , you must know that Range can produce a huge fused point clouds that can ends in around 4.5GB with 2 ft objects , the process is slightly slow even at i10 CPU as lots of data need to be processed and stores on the HDD after fusing it or meshing .
Models from this size of point cloud usually reach around 14 milion of polygons.
The sdk can’t be provided at this moment but will be on the right time , when ? Nobody knows exactly time time , so sorry but you can’t integrate the multiple scanners at this time anywhere else.
But on the other side it is amazing new device , just remember it is not replacement for early Revopoint devices but rather extension for POP2 , object scanning starts at 30 cm distance from the object so the accuracy is 0.1 mm , however the accuracy is better than POP2 at 30cm .
Remember 3D structured light scanners provide the best accuracy when they are most closely to the object while scanning so MINI at 10-20cm, POP2 at 15-25 cm and Range at 30-120cm
Keep an eye tomorrow on the super early bird packages , the deal will be fantastic , first come first serve
I am closing this old prototype Range scanner thread .
You can follow my showcase on the official new Range prototype thread here:
This will be the official KS Prototype
And I will start posting new example of scans today until tomorrow 9am EST so check out .
