<p>NO, this is not Starship Enterprise even though It looks like.<br><br>It is my interpretation of a 3d Scanner. With a few additionally parts, an android phone has all the capabilities to help you<br>3D scanning an item of interest.<br>Just follow the instructions!<br>Highlights about this scanners are:<br><br> small printing time, only the disk takes little more time<br> No microcontroller and firmware needed, only laser and motor<br><br>The video of the owl can be found at<br><a href="https://youtu.be/3iBqB1-8d1Y" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://youtu.be/3iBqB1-8d1Y</a><br>Another one of "Adolf the duck" is<br><a href="http://youtu.be/lmRgxYoPE90" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://youtu.be/lmRgxYoPE90</a><br><br>I would really appreciate if you posted some fotos and some scan results!<br>Instructions</p><p>Assembly/Setup<br><br> Print the parts<br> prepare the rods<br> insert the m3 screws and nuts into the base<br> mount the motor into the motor house<br> put everything together<br> connect the laser and the motor electrically.
