@@LearnEverythingAboutDesign i really like the miraco for the flexibility in scanning both large and small but worry that I might be loosing some accuracy, albeit a small difference. Thanks for the great content!
@@HeribertoReynoso In the description of the video there is a fusion link that has a small scan section from the mini and miraco. they are almost identical on the small details. I think the mini at first glance does a little better at scanning the details while the Miraco is a bit easier.
Ahhh I can see the difference especially in the casting surface imperfections. My application is product design, I take lots of measurements to try and then design a part in solidworks that fits as close as possible to manufactured part. I 3D print it, find my mistakes then reiterate. I think the miraco is perfect for my needs since precise measurements can de done with a digital caliper, but angles and relative point-to-point is best with miraco. Hoping they bring back the 15% discount soon
Thanks for the review. I just got this scanner as my first and i can see the quality build produsct it is. However, a fair warning to anyone jumping into 3d scan like me to capture small plastic scale model kit parts, I come to realize it only serves to capture the parts and use it as reference; you still have to model/replicate them into a 3D software. Is it possible to print the scanned part directly without replicate it in 3D soft like Blender or Fusion? Thanks again for the great review!
Hey There, yeah you can scan and print right from the scan BUT it kinda depends. What i mean is if you have something with a flat bottom for example, you can scan the part from one side and cut and fill the bottom in Revoscan to seal it off, then print that mesh file. I have done this with a few things where i scaned a small sculpture and just cut the bottom off with a plane, filled in it and printed that. If both sides of your part need details then you are kind of stuck modeling. I have several videos on different ways to work with scan data in Fusion. If you are comfortable with Blender you can of course go that route as well.
I wish I was nearby , I could really use a scanner for a pc case mod, I have tried photogrammetry with 1% success and by that I mean 1% of the model was identifiable hahaha so if you ever scan a segotep EDI case could you hook me up with a model .. I personally think you would LOVE my project ...
@@LearnEverythingAboutDesign I want to add "struts" to hold up bluetooth speaker pods .. but I have been trying to model and use photogrammetry to basically try to get the section of a HUGE egg shape :) ...WHat would be the cheapest possible way .. I've even looked at trying to rent a hand held but nowhere South Texas is atech void lol.
what's even the porpuse of those 3D scanners when there's a lot of better options out there like using apps and your mid or high tier smart phones. that thing is expensive too! with just bunch of cameras that your hardware standard phones already have. If that thing price range is about 100$ to 200$ higher than that doesn't even justify the point of buying that useless thing
They are different and a Lidar scan from your phone will not touch the accuracy of even a hobby 3d scanner. So it depends on what you need it for, but saying an app and lidar on your phone is a better option to a 3d scanner can be a bit of a stretch as it really depends on what you are trying to scan. Trying to scan your house? Yeah use your phones lidar setup. Trying to scan the impeller on a turbo? No way the lidar phone setup could do that. 3d scanners use depth cameras and light patterns on an object to generate a 3d point cloud. For the Mini2 this is in the .02mm precision and .05mm accuracy range. Mini2 is blue light, higher end scanners in the 15-50k range are often Laser based, faster and more accurate, less picky about surface finish. Using a Phone can get you a 3d model but it will have lower detail and quality, need a lot of clean up generally if you are trying to say 3d print something. LiDar is great for scanning larger objects where lower resolution is OK, but you wouldn't use that or photogrammetry to scan a detailed object. I think the best you could get if you were lucky is in the range of .3mm to .5mm accuracy with a phone for something about 25mm in size, which again for larger objects or things that don't require a higher level of detail that is perfectly fine. maybe you don't need a 3d scanner.
Lider cams is already implemented in every smart phones available 2022 up todays tech, at-least from what i'm using Andriod Mid and high tier phones(just in case you don't know that, you're welcome) or perhaps you're still using those Iphones cause there's nothing enovative they put out. Well anyways even those big Tech such as Linus tech tips, Nexus etc. news channels they have already proven how its not worth-it to get those 3D scanners interms of price to necessity. Its just better to buy the Software Application and use use a smart Phone. cause its a lot versitile and practical. Now these thing probably works on people for 'conviniency'' thinking just scan the thing and there you go done ya' nope! that's not how it works cause you still have at-least have an ample amount of knowledge 3D modeling works, hardsurface modelling, rendering etc. just to clean everything up. but by then well just 3D model the thing from scratch, whats the point using that scanner anyways!?. and also using an Application also have an actual service where in they postprocess everything for you. even by jus using a bunch of pictures those application can produce high qualit high detailed 3D files ready. @@LearnEverythingAboutDesign
@@valpercinabanalan8576 Have you seen what a 3D scan using a phone's LiDAR looks like? A LiDAR scan doesn't even come close to the the result you get from a cheap dedicated 3d scanner. We're talking night and day difference.
Really looking forward to seeing the difference between miraco and mini2! Subscribed!
Thanks for the sub! I hope to get that video out next week. So far the quality of the scans is pretty much identical.

@@LearnEverythingAboutDesignThank you for your response. I will run a test with a flat model as you mentioned. Happy Easter!
