Say goodbye to markers and scanning spray. Trackit’s base station tracking and 30 blue laser cross lines offer fast, accurate marker-free scans even on shiny surfaces. Scan smarter, prototype faster!
Not yet, the project is still in prototype mode so not final specification, but I would avoid using older laptops that runs on i7 CPUs and definitely not lower than i7 12th Gen.
The MetroX recommended specifications for computer is the preferable choice for maximum performance since it will use a lot more resources than MetroX.
The Trackit scanning system is huge , so not typical small spaces hobby Desktop scanner but directed more on the commercial side.
Just to give you a little idea between MetroX and the tracker size.
That’s great , the CU 9 275HX exhibits a significant performance increase over the i9 14900HX that I just purchased, particularly in multi-threaded workloads is 20% faster.
It’s only for vr and motion platform gaming. I do have another laptop that has 64GB ram, i9-12900H rtx 3080ti mobile that I’ll be using for 3d design and printing
do you have any information about the required computer hardware for this scanner?
will it have the same requirements as the metrox or does it need something more powerful in terms of components?
Did you carry this back from Shenzhen or did Revopoint ship it to you? Did you have to pay any import duty? At 145% duty, I am guessing that the Trackit will be a non-USA release but who knows. Tariffs may change by the time it is released on Kickstarter.
Hi Bruce , it was indeed carry on from Shenzhen , not shipped or being handled as a product because it’s still a just a prototype version.
After May 2 Tariffs will kick in for everything that came from China , there area even now import tax on electronic with higher value than $900 so definitely it can effect everything.
I don’t know where the Kickstarter release will be U.S. or EU, we will see..
But bad for us if in U.S. that’s for sure.
I can’t imagine anybody can afford it after extra 124% plus State Tax and the cost of shipping. Since that’s not a hobby toy anymore.
It depends of what size of volumes you will be scanning and what resolution you choice. For bigger scans with high resolution fusing , 32GB may be just not enough for the processing.
Remember the system and your graphic card also needs portion of your RAM .
if you have multiple scans in one project , the resource for processing getting smaller , unless you use your laptop just for scanning and later processing the projects on workstation , then you will be fine with 32GB on your laptop.
Minimum system requirements allow you to run the software and scan , but for processing
I would recommend no less than 64GB in your system and at least CPU processor with 8 cores and 16 threads.
I am talking from my own experiences here. Go for 64 GB RAM ..
