As a lazy person, constructing 3D model in CAD is way too tedious, too much work & too slow for me to do joyously... Naturally, I rather spend time check out YouTube...
A digital scanner seems to be the thing for me.
Scanner.... Hmmmm... the 1st image appear in my head is a laser line sweeping top down across an object of interest on a rotating table...
More google review more then a few way to digitise a 3D object...
Contact method, this utilises a mechanical probe of choice to probe the X, Y & Z coordinate in a very fine grid progression... I reckon I can start immediately by installing a probe on my CNC router & probe away... BUT BUT BUT I can immediately relate to how many YouTube movie I will be watching while waiting to scan a human head size object.... Sure no go with this...
Non-contact method, now this is more like it, a laser line sweeping the object of interest...
OK, what do we do with the scanned data??? & how the hell am I gonna get his data????
POINT CLOUD keep showing up everywhere when I google.... What has cloud gotta do with scanning???? Like rain cloud over my head with lightning striking on me...
Nope, I'm still checking this point cloud thingy....
more to come once I made progress.... Don't touch that dial!!!
