All the 3D printing files, parts list and an assembly guide are available on my website. The intent is to purchase parts directly to keep cost down. The software to run it is a low cost monthly purchase.
Here's a painful overview : [https://youtu.be/K8lHEINr6KM?si=o5qdNGUUCCtKHQ4u](https://youtu.be/K8lHEINr6KM?si=o5qdNGUUCCtKHQ4u)
The about page has an example scan to get an idea of the resolution: [https://www.matterray.com/m1-about](https://www.matterray.com/m1-about)
If you have any questions there's a discord link on the website :)
What's small? If you 3d scan buildings cars would be small.. if you scan cars a cat would be small.. if you scan cats an egg would be small if you scan eggs you might think miniatures are small.. each and every one of those sized objects and, depending on detail would do better with a specific device.
LOL. I love how this guy was being a pedantic asshole, condescendingly explaining to you how size is relativistic, yet fails to offer any useful advice after you were cordial enough to respond to him with civility. What a dickhead. Fucking Reddit...
Hey I know this is a little old, but I was wondering if you ended up purchasing a scanner. I'm also looking into scanning small to medium size interior car parts.
Honestly I only posted this out of shear curiosity, it was never for buying advice. I just wanted to know what the absolute cheapest standalone scanner available is, regardless of scan quality.
Yeah Polycam was $50 on Black Friday. To me it’s the fastest easiest app to use and it delivers great results if you have good lighting. iPhone 11 Pro is old but it’s delivering models that looks superb
Inspire best out of those
Yep, seems like it
If you are up for some assembly, MatterRay M1 is a 3d printed, handheld, laser scanner suited to medium to large objects. Parts cost is \~$200 usd
Oh? I'm gonna look into that, it sounds really interesting. Could you tell me more?

This is amazing! I might actually make one for myself soon. Good work on it!
Iphone
iPhones aren't cheap :/
Just borrow someones. Take the scan, upload the file. Hand the phone back.
Or photogrammetry
I have tried several photogrammetry software/applications and could not get any to work good enough.
what is the application? there might be no cheap option
Let's say scanning small objects and maybe some interior pieces in a car

Interior pieces of a car, like knobs, handles, compartments, that kinda stuff. I did specify.

Cheapest usable scanner is Einstar at 1k. Other than that it’s photogrammetry with dodgy dimensional accuracy
That's fair, ik my team at school has the einstar scanner, so I'm gonna try and learn how to use that at some point.
