Capturing and mapping the texture (colour and pattern) of a scanned object to its digital 3D representation – this is the new module Texture Mapping of Breuckmann’s high-performance measuring and evaluation software OPTOCAT.

This feature is particularly interesting for three-dimensional scanning projects in the field design, but also for any user who requires a high-resolution texture for his generated 3D data. The texture mapping can be carried out both by using the internal imagery of the scanning sensor as well as using images taken with any kind of external camera. External digital data allow for a variety of possibilities of texture capturing but also provide a large degree of freedom with regard to pixel resolution, professional illumination and raw data processing with colour management. Furthermore, it is possible to complement the 3D data generated by a monochrome scanning sensor with colour imagery or with multispectral data (UV, IR, etc.). 3D Laser Scanner.

On first impressions, the kit is well presented, all components are of a high quality and well finished. The box has sponge inserts and can be reused for safe portability and storage. From the anodized bracket, the aluminium calibration boards to the tripod - all things have been well considered. The David SLS-1. The included Acer K11+ Structured Light Projector has a customised lens with a high focal range, enabling it to be calibrated for large and small scanning volumes.

The new DAVID-CAM-3-M now with double the resolution (1280x960). The high quality 12mm Computar Lens is now included in the David SLS-1 3D Scanning kit for increased precision and accuracy.

Lynx A: the incredible 3D scanner you can afford. The learning curve for 3D modeling has become significantly less steep over the last decade, but it’s an upward curve still.

Lynx A: the incredible 3D scanner you can afford

So what do you do if you want a digital 3D model of something physical, but don’t want to model it yourself? Your only options are to have someone do it for you, which can take a decent amount of time and money, or you could use a 3D scanner, which can either take lots of time OR money. If you go with the scanning option and try to go the cheap route, you could end up wasting a lot of time. If you’d like the process to be a bit less painful, you’ll need to spend tens of thousands of dollars on a professional 3D scanner. At least, that was the case before the Lynx A. Technically it’s still not available because it still has 32 days left on its Kickstarter campaign, but the good news is that it’s already reached funding.
