Description
Fabscan is an affordable laser scanner for Mac OSX and Linux Ubuntu designed by Francis Engelmann.
Fabscan Lite is a derivative that uses printed parts and wood dowel rather than laser cut panels for its construction. The geometry can be adjusted by trimming the dowel pieces and an enclosure is optional (but desirable) because I've incorporated a laser target in this design.
The enclosure is made out of a single sheet of foam board which is scored with a hobby knife, folded and simply hot glued together. The assembly is hot glued in place.
Complete details for the original Fabscan can be found at http://hci.rwth-aachen.de/fabscan
I've got about $120 usd in this project not including the printed parts.
I've put a video together demonstrating the alignment, scanning and post processing. I'm not an expert at any of this, so please be kind.
Note, skip to 3:30 in this video to only view the usage and not the setup of Fabscan Lite

Update Francis has been working hard on Fabscan and has uploaded a new version 100.8 which has fixed a lot of bugs (not all) and has the Powercrust function built in. I'm now getting nice scans and finished STLs.
