What’s a SKU? Google just says “Stock Keeping Unit”, but I don’t think that’s correct in this context.
- Comment on A bit of a warning about the Einstar VEGA 3D-Scanner 1 month ago:
I looked into it, but it covers a different use case. It’s based on photogrammetry. For reverse engineering, you always need at least one measurement to scale the mesh. Also, you cannot scan anything bigger than the enclosed space within the scanner.
The einstar actually measures depth, so I can get measurements even if I scan the object from just one side. It stitches the measured points together by overlapping features, so it theoretically can scan infinitely large objects.
A big reason why I wanted an All-in-one 3D scanner was because I want to reverse engineer objects I see “in the wild” and in museums. The staff there might not appreciate it when I put a ruler on their stuff.

You have Trump now. It’d be our turn to make jokes, if we had any humour.

Yeah, everybody is making jokes about cooking with blood in this thread, but they’re really just describing German cuisine. I remember eating blood gruel with potatoes and spinach as a kid. Tastes awful.

There seems to be still plenty of refurbs and “new old stock” on the market.
