This scanner looks really promising and it seems like it solves most of the annoyances of my CR Scan Lizard (the cable mess with the power supply and separate cable to the PC, poor tracking with no marker support, limited focal range etc). But personally I don't trust Creality and more with 3D Scanners. My CR Scan Lizard is a nightmare. It is almost impossible to get a clean scan with it. Even with scanningspray and the included rotary table, it still loses track all the time. At this point they have so many scanners and several different scanning softwares ... I feel like they should focus more on improving what they have instead of releasing new stuff all the time.
working on what they've currently got is possibly the worst thing they could've done. Best course of action was to take the lizard/ferret/software out back to into the shed with 12ga. Then start over from scratch, clean sheet, with the lessons they've learned. You just learned the hard way the downsides of being an early adopter.
Creality seems to have abandoned the Lizard and Scan01 scanners, as there won't be any new updates for these two models. The new products CR-Scan Ferret, CR-Scan Otter, and CR-Scan Raptor all share the same software and are continuously being iterated upon. From Otter, it's evident that Creality has gained a deep understanding of user needs. In the past, scanning large objects required one scanner, small objects another, and medium-sized objects yet another. How many scanners do we really need to buy? Otter's design is excellent; with just this one purchase, it can cover various object sizes. We look forward to them fulfilling their promise and releasing a wireless scanning kit compatible with the Otter in the future.
@@joeyhuang6791lizard is still receiving updates via JMStudio of 3D maker Pro company. Lizard is a different scanner, with different use case, it's not abandoned ,just is finished, and works nicely, you just bought the wrong scanner or wasn't able ro learn to use it. Also is a different price.
Your "preview" intro is really smart. This prevents the viewer from fast forwarding around. Once the fast forwarding starts, it ends with them moving on to the next video.
Because it's a review video and this bike is a prototype. I'm reviewing a scanner, not a vacuum former. 3D printing parts to mock up on the chassis is easier than 3d printing bucks to vacuum form parts to mock up on the chassis, and a lot easier than carving clay. These are not the actual finished parts. This is the fitting stage where I mock things up and make adjustments as I see fit. When I'm happy with the design, then bucks will be 3d printed instead and used for vac forming the finished parts.
What nozzle temp do you print at? What material? You should be between 205-215c nozzle if you are using PLA. Lower temps cause underextrusion problems, that you mentioned.
Unfortunately not unless Creality produces it. This isn't a typical usb cable. It has usb connectors, but the cable itself is very different. Actually made up of two cables - both are larger than the standard and one is 4-5X thicker.
I have the otter for 3 days now but i cant get any scans to optimize the point cloud... I've no way of knowing whether its the scanner's fault or the scanner software being incompatible with my PC.. or what.. the point cloud looks amazing i just cant do anything with it
If your PC specs don't match the requirements then it's your PC. If you don't have version 3.1.6 or higher, then it's the software (I'm using 3.1.22). Or it could be both. Your way of knowing is checking the device requirements in the user manual and checking what version of the software you're using.
You need a lot of ram to convert a point cloud to a mesh. I use 32gb for my Einstar scanner and this is the minimum I would recommend for a PC dealing with scan data.

Without seeing the video I give it a like, I almost dropped my phone from clicking it when I saw the notification, I'm looking forward to this video

Hello James, you are a pro in Sketchup, can you scan with the otter black carpet in the car on the ground? Thank you very much!
Nice work man I would like to know why you dont use vacuum forming of abs instead of 3d printing the tank and the tail.

When the E-CROSSKART buggy plans be available?
What are your thoughts on the Raptor model?
I would be very happy if you answer, I also design engine parts, can you tell me what the name of that cardboard-like thing is?
Hi, what thickness is the foil you use? Is it aluminum or something else? Where can I find it? or what should I look for? Thank you
It's just aluminum flashing. You can find it at any building supply store.
BROTHER I NEED THIS DESIGN PDF PLEASE I WANA MAKE THIS BYKE I AM FROM PAKISTAN
You need a usb extension cable. Easy to add 25 feet of range
Unfortunately not unless Creality produces it. This isn't a typical usb cable. It has usb connectors, but the cable itself is very different. Actually made up of two cables - both are larger than the standard and one is 4-5X thicker.
so which is better between this and the einstar scanner
Einstar can't scan such a small object, but for large objects einstar works well. This Otter can cover small and large objects.
@@3dscan-review So otter it is!
Einstar cannot capture the details of small objects, even in marker mode.
You would need to have a tablet, smartphone, or Wireless scanner!?
Do you get the suggestions, #Creality3dScanner - guys?
What is the largest object it could scan? Id love to scan furniture as big as a 2 seater couch.
2000x2000x2000mm (78.7x78.7x78.7")
looks like you need some canned air on the ho tend shroud

What is your computer specs?
Win10, 64 bit, 32gb.
*Take my money!*
look at Quick surface for reverse engineering scanned models
Out of respect? Creality doesn't own you bro.
That's not what respect means, bro.
