The smoothest 3d scanning I've done - Mole 3D Scanner Review

3DMakerPro's Mole 3D scanner is a near-infrared scanner boasting 0.05mm accuracy and 0.1mm resolution, and even scanning black objects! But how does this scanner measure up? Lets find out in my full review of the Mole 3D Scanner.

Do you have another IR camera you can used on the skull to see if it has issues seeing the material?

[@ethansdad3d]

Great review. I think the software needs some work in order to be able to scan the voronoi stuff and yourself.

[@karanhasnochill]

Would you recommend using this to scan furniture? I mean, the objects that you've shown would be fine, but do you think this would work well with bigger furniture objects like chair, sofas, beds, and all?

[@xXKisskerXx]

the Creality Scan Lizard claimed 0.05mm accuracy as well, but only 0.1- 0.2mm resolution. I wonder if it would work with JMstudio.. as I haven't had much luck with its (probably) ripoff version of softwares.

[@admirar6196]

What is your recommendation for a good 3rd scanner

[@rsstnnr76]

Which scanner do you recommend for face and body scans?

[@twanskys]

How do I turn a 3d scan into a solid?

[@MichaelSimonton]

Would 3” objects be too small?

[@jenyferaldape9649]

Where did you find the tutorials?
I'm having problems to understand the program😢

[@jonnyboy9927]

what dried shampoo do you use?

[@TheCanadienMickeyMouse]

how good is the mole at scanning small very small objects with thin walls and small gemotry ( toy armor size of a golf ball with 2mm thin walls with other 2mm details)

[@HoffmanEngineering]

Not very good, this scanner would not handle small objects like that.

[@TheCanadienMickeyMouse]

@@HoffmanEngineering darn :(

[@haykushakhachatryan5024]

Kindly write price

[@MuThunder]

Is there a way to use this technology for earning moneys?

[@dainjah]

thanks, Ill stick to photogrammetry, those 1-2k scanners are still very poor

[@JohnJones-oy3md]

0:30 - Unless you returned the scanner, this is more than a little disingenuous. The scanner is the payment.

[@HoffmanEngineering]

I understand that viewpoint. I try not to be disingenuous, which is why I put the disclaimers at the very start of all my review videos. After I receive the product, the company has no input on the video, and I have no problem with giving my honest opinion even to the detriment of the product (see th-cam.com/video/ur4ZGS3z_X8/w-d-xo.html for an example). I'd much rather make a company I collaborate with uncomfortable than lose the respect of my viewers by withholding my thoughts about the product.

[@BearstowsBarnstormers]

@@HoffmanEngineering THE JICCODA!

[@lukemurace]

also note a third party retailer provided the product, not the manufacturer

[@njipods]

hardly a review. just one big advert

[@YTendeavours]

A $300 freebie was all it took to sell out your integrity to shill a substandard product?
Yikes.
