OLSK 3D Scanner V2

The OLSK 3D Scanner is an open source 3D scanner with a turntable and three cameras for faster capture of 3D models. With a simple, compact design, it can be replicated and assembled in fab labs, schools, or at home. A USB connection lets users process scans with custom software, and camera positions can be adjusted for different object sizes and shapes.

Specifications

• 3 × USB camera modules with Sony IMX179 sensor and autofocus
• 3 mm CNC-milled aluminum frame
