OpenScan Mini
The user-friendly OpenScan Mini is the easiest way of getting into 3D scanning with photogrammetry.
With this powerful technology you can scan anything from dental models, old action figurines, keys, ear impressions, archeological artifacts and almost anything that fits into the scan volume.
The device helps to create a perfect set of photos, that can be processed with any photogrammetry software. The built-in camera and unique cross-polarizer create shadowless illumination and filter unwanted reflections.
Off-the-shelf components
Most of the parts can be either 3d printed or sourced locally for easier repairability
Scan Volume
Scan objects up to ~9x9x9cm
Useability
With the built-in ring light and unique cross polarisation, users do not have to worry about lighting or reflections
Raspberry Pi Inside
Running open-source software on the Raspberry Pi to control the scanning process
Customizability
Choose between different kits with/without Raspberry Pi and printed parts or select the individual parts
Modularity
You can re-use all electronics to build the OpenScan Classic or your own rig
Accessibility
Control the 3D scanner through a browser interface without the need for any additional software
Accuracy
As with all scanning technology, the accuracy highly depends on the object preparation and user capability, but it is possible to reach well below 0.02mm
Open Source
We strongly believe in the open source idea and publish all our firmware and hardware details on GitHub
Optional & Free Cloud Processing
You can either use the donation-based OpenScan Cloud or your local processing software to generate the 3D model
