3D Systems Announces Free Sense Plus Software Upgrade for Sense 3D Scanner, Available Now at Cubify - 3DPrint.

com

While an exciting variety of new startups and 3D printers are stepping up and being presented to the cutting edge technology scene this year, 2015 seems to be the year of the new 3D scanner, putting it affordably into the hands, laps–and laptops–of users greedily snapping up the innovations which allow them to do so much more right from home or even just from their smartphones, whether indoors or out.

3D Systems, ever at the forefront, and certainly never lagging behind in the daily headlines regarding new and improved technology, is announcing today that they’ll be offering a software update to the Sense Plus software for their popular Sense 3D scanner, which is the only full-color consumer 3D scanner offering the largest scan-size range.

These updates, free to existing users, will make life even easier in the scanning and physical photography arena for:

Capturing
Editing
Sharing
Printing real-world objects in 3D.

While affordability and ease are essential and heavily focused on right now with 3D scanning, users should also be thrilled to hear that they will now experience scan capture speed tripling what they were used to previously, at 25 frames per second. The experience will be smoother all around, with motion tracking improved substantially as well.

Users will enjoy new features in color editing as well, and can download the upgrade free from 3D Systems platform Cubify.

Sense is a comprehensive scanning solution that’s certainly attractive for the 3D design and 3D printing community at a price of $399, which is obviously putting forth enormous affordability compared to what has been available just in the past few years. As hobbyists began to see the need for affordable 3D scanners, producing their own with open-source designs, many of the main manufacturers also hopped on board with new innovations, features, and best of all – affordability.

Not only is pricing better, but suddenly consumers have extreme desktop and smartphone accessibility with 3D scanning, allowing them to 3D scan—from wherever, at whim—and then zip right over to their 3D printers and produce 3D printed models and objects, as well as sending scanned images directly to 3D printing service bureaus if they don’t have access to a printer or they have other printing equipment or material needs.

Enjoy ‘mashing up’ your world with Sense

With Sense, 3DS offers the user the ability to:

Go from physical object back to the digital platform, and back to 3D printing, as scans are 3D print ready and can be uploaded to the cloud.
Use the fastest scanning equipment available at this quality and price level.

Top 13 3D scanners on the market!・Cults

In the past, 3D scanners were mainly used for industrial and professional applications. For example, scanning architectural objects or creating digital models for films. As technology advances, the price continues to drop. Now, 3D scanning gives the average person the ability to custom-make just about anything they want. With more affordable prices, 3D scanning is becoming more accessible to consumers for personal use. nine0003

But first, a basic overview of 3D scanning:

A 3D scanner scans real objects and passes the image data to a 3D modeling program. The object can then be manipulated in the software and - if desired - exported and created on a 3D printer.

1. Select any object (or person!) you want to scan

Why is 3D scanning useful?

Imagine if you could scan your body and see how clothes fit and look online before you order them? 3D scanning technology can do just that. For example, bodylabs uses 3D scanning to understand how products will work for customers based on their body shape and posture. nine0003

2. Scan it and customize it in 3D modeling software

After scanning the object, you can reduce the size or edit it with free 3D design software. You can then choose to 3D print the edited file.

3. Export your model and print it in 3D!

After scanning the model and editing it to your liking, you can export it to .stl format and send it to a printer to bring it to life. nine0003

We have listed the 3D scanners below in ascending order of price (from cheapest to most expensive). Their rating does not necessarily reflect our judgment of the quality of the product. We've included some handy YouTube videos that go into more detail about each product.

1. XBox Kinect 3D Scanner - $95 USD

If you want to get by on the cheap, there are ways to use your old Xbox 360 or Xbox One Kinect device to get great results! If you have a Kinect. nine0003

2. iSense 3D Scanner for iPhone/iPad - $99

This scanner was developed by 3D Systems as part of the Cubify family. Although they don't sell 3D printers anymore, they keep their 3D scanner in the market. Like a structure sensor, iSense attaches to an iPad or iPhone. Its range of motion is 0.5m more than the Sense.

3. XYZprinting 3D Scanner - $139

XYZprinting 3D Scanner is the cheapest portable 3D scanner on the market. At under $200, it's perfect for anyone looking to get into 3D scanning on a budget. nine0003

The size of the scanner is 60 cm x 60 cm x 30 cm, so it is best used for small items. It also uses the new Intel RealSense image capture software, which means it can connect to any Windows device with a 4th generation Intel processor.

4. BQ Ciclop 3D Scanner Kit - $199

This open source hardware project has been released under an open source license so that all mechanical design, electronics and software information is available to the community for further development . The full package costs about 199 USD. You can even download the design and print it in 3D!

5. Structure Sensor for iPad - $379

Arguably the best scanner on the market, the Structure Sensor was developed through a Kickstarter campaign that attracted over 3,500 people and raised $1.2 million. Structure Sensor turns your regular iPad into a 3D scanner that captures three streams of data at 30 frames per second.

6. Cubify Sense - $399 USD

Cubify Sense is a portable pen scanner that makes it easy to manually scan 3D objects. This makes it possible to use Sense in quite unique areas, with both advantages and disadvantages. Sense is compatible with Windows and Mac OS.

7. Matter And Form MFS1V1 Desktop 3D Scanner - $467 USD

The first ever crowdfunded 3D scanner, Matter and Form, is a Toronto-based company that has raised nearly half a million dollars to develop this product. It uses a 3D laser scanner with a movable camera head and a 360-degree rotating platform. nine0003

MFS1V1 generates a detailed point cloud, which again works very well in some scenarios and less well in others.

8. XYZprinting Da Vinci 1.0 Pro 3-in-1 3D Printer - $810

Da Vinci 1.0 Pro is both a 3D scanner and a 3D printer. It uses a laser diode module with a 2 megapixel camera (higher resolution than 1.2 megapixel iPad scanners). Please note that this machine uses proprietary 3D printing consumables. nine0003

9. Einscan-S - $999

Einscan-S has two scanning modes: automatic and free. The first one is the easiest: just place an object on the rotating surface of the Einscan turntable and the machine will scan it in just 3 minutes with an accuracy of .1 mm. For large models, free scan mode works by rotating the scanner on a tripod around the object. Einscan-S generates one STL file that can be sent directly to your 3D printer. Einscan-S produces 3D printable models with greater accuracy (using "Light Structure Phase Shift Technology" instead of lasers) than competitors, providing industrial quality 3D scanning technology within a consumer's budget. nine0003

10. IIIDScan PrimeSense 3D Scanner - $1441 USD

Greater accuracy comes at a price. This tripod-mounted 3D scanner is unique in that it uses a short-range image sensor capable of scanning 3D objects in more detail and at a faster rate than other scanners on the market.

11. Fuel3D Scanify - US$1,500

This is a very high speed handheld 3D scanner capable of capturing an object in less than 1/10th of a second. In this regard, it differs significantly from the other 3D scanners on this list. In practice, it's more like taking a 3D photograph than manually scanning an object. Fuel3D Scanify uses a dual HD stereo laser camera combined with photometric data from three xenon flashes to create reasonably realistic 3D scans in the blink of an eye (so to speak). High tech. nine0003

12. NextEngine 3D Scanner HD - $2,995 USD

The NextEngine 3D Scanner HD combines portability with very high accuracy - much better than the scanners at the top of this list. Of course, the higher the accuracy, the higher the price! It uses an electro-optical system with a laser array that scans in tandem. The advantage is that the high-precision scanner has no size limits. The scanner comes with its own mesh creation software package, and you can also check out their NURBS and Solid modeling packages as options. nine0003

This is the scanner for those who want to get really serious results from their 3D scanning efforts. If you check out the gallery on their site, you can see how much more detailed NextEngine scans are compared to some of the cheaper scanners on this list. Of course, these are the company's own comparisons for marketing purposes, so feel free to take them with a grain of salt!

13. DAVID SLS-2 Laser Scanner - $3,275

The scanner is expensive, but it has a unique use of "light scanning". The company boasts that you can scan everything from insects to elephants. We are told that the SLS-2 can scan 1.2 million peaks in a few seconds. Blimey! nine0003

What if none of these scanners work for you? What if you want the best of the best? What if you have several thousand dollars set aside for a 3D scanning budget? If you happen to be in this position, take a look at some of these bad guys...

Arctec Eva 3D Scanner - $19,800 (CAD 26,300) dollars)

Creaform HandySCAN 700 - 56 9$00 (CAD 77,700)

This is our list of the best 3D scanners on the market. We hope you find it useful.

3DSystems Sense 3D Scanner Review: Specifications, Reviews,

The 3DSystems Sense 3D Scanner is an inexpensive handheld model with outstanding performance. It is no coincidence that we chose her in order to prepare a new interesting review with bright informative photos, because her popularity is growing exponentially. It is ideal for teaching and hobby, design and architecture, and color scanning of large objects, including the human body. According to professionals, this is a productive device that creates high-quality scans. According to beginners, it is an easy-to-understand model with unified characteristics. nine0003

Features of the scanning module 3DSystems Sense

In the segment of manual equipment, the 3D scanner 3Systems Sense can rightly be considered unique. It runs on intuitive software and is equipped with excellent stuffing. Light-sensitive optics capture the slightest changes in the geometry of any object that you work with, while the device does not need direct contact with it.

Design and exterior

It's a paradox, but from a distance this device can be confused with a large stapler, its body is so compact and simple in appearance. Dimension is only 129x128x330 mm, it is comfortable to hold in your hand also due to the minimum weight of 700 g. This is important when scanning large objects with complex reliefs and textures, which this kid captures with enviable accuracy.

Only one cable is used to connect to a laptop, but due to its short length, the PC must be held almost all the time. At the same time, if Windows 10 is installed on any compatible tablet, the problem is automatically fixed.

Key features

An overview of all the performance features of 3DSystems Sense can be found on our 3DMall website, but we cannot ignore the most basic of them:

objects with a complex surface (saturated black, shiny, etc.) are best scanned almost closely;
within a second the device makes and processes 30 frames; nine0116
scanning area is from 200x200x200 to 2000x2000x2000 mm with an accuracy of 1 mm;
texture capture rate - 1920x1080 pixels.

Equipment

Equipment 3Systems Sens is concise and standard for models of this class. It includes the scanning module itself, software, a cable for connecting to a laptop or PC, as well as a user manual. The packaging is a simple light-colored box with functional holes to accommodate the scanner and cord. nine0003

Setting operating parameters

At the very first stage, you should install software, which is expected to have the same name as the scanner itself - 3DSystems Sense. The first launch implies the need to activate the device for security purposes after pre-registration on the official website of the brand. Please note that the equipment is bound to the PC that was used to activate the module; only specialists from the manufacturer can remove it. nine0003

Immediately after starting the program offers to choose one of 3 operating modes:

object scanning;
human body scan;
face scan.

In the first mode, it is imperative that the object is stationary, this is the only way to achieve maximum accuracy of prints. In the process of work, a small problem may arise - additional points may not be added in real time when creating each next frame. In this case, you can try to mount the device on a tripod and save images frame by frame - the scanning speed will decrease slightly, but the quality will be incomparably higher. nine0003

When scanning a face, frames are stitched in real time, while the program signals you how to improve the quality of the process - slow down or stop completely.
