Hi Paul,

Your link doesn't work. Would you please be able to update it?

Thank you,
Gus


For your information, and perhaps for others, this is what I did.

Worked extremely well. Really high quality models with no editing except closing the bottoms of the feet.

Face and Body Scanning / Re: The Business of 3D Scanning
« on: May 30, 2019, 05:13:09 PM »
This is a very interesting thread for me. It was started in 2014 and it has been stated, that technological advance of handheld scanners will render complex and expensive photogrammetry systems with many DSLR cameras obsolete.

Now 5 years later how do things look like? I am very interested in this as I am looking into getting into commercial 3D scanning to produce 3D printed figurines. I am considering what system should I get to start this kind of business. There are different systems available on the market right now. One can custom build a photogrammetry system (which is what I was looking into originally), or buy 'off the shelf' system like Twinstant or Artec Shapify or get a portable scanner like Artec Leo.

Of course every system has it's own strengths and weaknesses, however I would like to know where the market is going these days. Does it still make sense to build a big and complex photogrammetry rig with a lot of postprocessing involved or one could get faster, better results with one of the latest hand held scanners, in particular Artec Leo (big plus, it is mobile)?
