AutoCatch 3D Scanner

AutoCatch 3D Scanner

I've been wanting to automate 123D Catch for a long time, and since I wasn't working on anything, I decided to do it. I actually planned to make an object scanner but ended up making a room scanner instead. It moves around a pivot point and takes pictures using a stylus pen and a servo. I built it with LittleBits so that it would be easier for me to create it, however I will make another one with an actual servo and Arduino etc. I'm also planning to make an object scanner using this platform. The parts can be assembled in under 10 minutes and is an easy process. You need 6 M3x20 screws, 6 M3 nuts and 2 M3x10 screws. You'll also need the screw that comes from the LittleBits servo. The servo gets attached to D5 in analog and the DC motor gets attached to D9 in PWM. The code for the Arduino module is available on my website - www.tna-designs.com - http://tuna.sb.com.tr/?p=410 . To make the stylus work by itself, you need to cut about 60 cm of 0.25 mm cable and tuck it to the back of the pen. After getting the circuit made and the parts assembled, mount them to the LittleBits mounting board. If anything feels loose, you can use a bit of blue-tack or double-sided tape. Choose your desired angle and place your phone or tablet on the mount. After powering the circuit, the servo will start taking pictures. A full 360 turn takes about 50 pictures and is enough for a room scan. After completing the 360 turn, power off the circuit and submit the pictures. The app will then process them, giving you a 3D scan of your room etc. The code is open source and can be changed for specific needs but it works fine as is.

All pieces are designed to be used right off the printer without any post-printing needed. *The 'Balancer' was printed on my Printrbot Simple Metal
