Description

What is a 3D scanner?

A 3D scanner is a device for transferring a real-life 3D object into virtual 3D space. It uses light and cameras to interpret real-life geometry and create a 3D model that is true to life.

What can you do with it?

A 3D scanner is used when you wish to transfer a model from real life into a computer model. This could be useful when creating an object to enclose another object. An example of this is a phone case, where the user scans the phone in as a model, then creates the case using 3D modelling software to fit the phone.

How to get started:

Only those who have gained access to the Create and Maker Space can attend training sessions. If you haven't already, get involved today!
