@DotProduct3D 1 second ago While we don't have plans for Azure Kinect at this time, we are always investigating new 3D camera options and will definitely be adding to the list in the future: dotproduct.zohodesk.com/portal/en/kb/articles/depthcameras
Will you consider a hobby package? Looking for a way I can use my realsense for scanning into a stl file and 3d printing. $95 a month is steep for hobby use. I see the mole was just released by makerbot with incredible detail for only $400. I really didn’t want to go with new hardware since I’ve machined my own turntable setup with multi scanning using a pair of D435, a Lidar, and a couple cameras. Not the end of the world I guess i could sell these d400’s Currently the only open source available is a little low in detail. It works but it is a bit meh and can be issue where bearing pockets and through holes exist. I scan rc parts for my hobby because the ABS plastics break so easy so i can print in carbon fiber for the added durability. Alternatively i still use Cad. If there was a $200 one time fee and was limited to scan’s within a 36” cube id be fine with that. Most of what i scan is on a 12” turntable. Occasionally some larger pieces on a rotisserie in my 2’ x 4’ printer. Having one of my cameras attach the printer gantry wjile the rotisserie slowly spins is really nice for the occasional larger item. Its always the software that makes it difficult for the average person to justify as an expense. Nice software you all have.
We recommend magnetic or velcro mounting and a USB C-to-C 3.1 cable. We sell a magnetic mounting kit + approved USB C-to-C cable for $30 USD. You may request a quote to order this at www.dotproduct3d.com/orders
Our sweet spot as far as scene scale is currently anything from 3x3 ft objects (with the DPI-10SR) up to a whole house (with any other supported camera). As we continue to add support for more and more 3D cameras, that definitely may change, but as it stands very small objects are not ideal for our technology. Room-scale is where we particularly excel.
While the LiDAR technology in the L515 is very impressive and powerful for its size and price point, it simply is not quite powerful enough to overcome sunlight interference. This is also explained in more detail at the 13:20 mark in the video.
