      Hi
      I know that some people know David Laserscanner. I like to tell here that i scanned some sofas in real size. That was really very interresting to do. If someone like to do the same i can help 😎 David Scanner original is just for small things. On picture you can see a scan.

        Very interesting stuff, thanks for heads up.

        What format was it created in?
        How big is it in .skp?
        How many polys?

        If you see a toilet in your dreams do not use it.

          When saving only the file as skp file the size is about 30 MB. As 3ds about 5.42 MB.
          As a 3ds files it has 156179 faces. The original file is to save as obj file and then it is very large and rough. I hade to smooth it somehow with special software. The sofa has been scanned from different sides and then put the scans together as one. In general in the david forum are sure some really experts if you need to know more details. As in rendering also my 3d scans are to use but far away from perfect 😎 But it was fun to realise it!

            I'm also using the david scanner. How did you calibrate the cam? did you print out the backgroundpoints in bigsize?

              Wow, You scanned a sofa? I'm impressed! πŸ˜„

              I'm with jo-ke, how on earth did you set up the backgrounds? Have you got any pix of your 'studio' where you produced these scans?

                Hi
                On image you see the calibrationspoints i painted with pencil on wall/floor. Calibrations mode is manually. Camera is rotated 90° to right. And you see also my home made laser motor i made with an old fan 😎 . It rotates from left to right. And i had to use an wide-angle objective to the camera. On the david forum i have made a more detaild post about the whole stuff.
