FlexScan3D supports the following equipment. The system can be setup using fixed or free form mounts.
Projectors
Almost all white light / presentation projectors will work with FlexScan3D, although it should meet the following minimum requirements:
- Minimum resolution: 800x600
- Standard Projectors: 1500+ Lumen and DLP Based Recommended
- LED Projectors: 100+ Lumens
Cameras
FlexScan3D supports the use of machine vision cameras for 3D geometry capture.
Digital SLR cameras are recommended only as an external high color resolution texture capture (optional).
Machine Vision Camera for 3D Geometry Capture
A machine vision camera is a small digital video camera that is connected to your PC using USB, FireWire, GiGE or another camera interface. These cameras are the same size as a standard web camera but offer significantly better image quality, capture speed and power.
For most basic applications we recommend using a black and white 1.3 megapixel USB camera with a standard 12.5mm lens since it is the best blend of performance, speed and cost. Brands of supported cameras include:
- IDS - All models except XS
- PTGrey - All models except camera link interface models
Digital SLR Cameras for External Texture Cameras (Optional)
For most high resolution color texture maps, we currently recommend using a Canon Rebel T2i. Other supported texture cameras include:
Canon Digital SLR
- EOS Rebel T2i
- EOS 1D Mark IV
- EOS 7D
- EOS Rebel T1i
- EOS 5D Mark II
- EOS 50D
- EOS Rebel XS
- EOS Rebel XSi
- EOS-1Ds Mark III
- EOS-1D Mark IIIEOS 40D
- All DIGIC II EOS SLRs
Nikon Digital SLR
- Nikon DSLR cameras manufactured after 2005 work with FS3D, D40x, D50, D60, D70s, D80, D90, D200, D300, D700 and newer cameras (2.6x only - 3.0 support coming soon)
Standard Digital Cameras
- Any Point and Shoot Cameras that supports image acquisition via the generic windows WIA Driver
Note
- Technical support is provided for supported hardware only. 3D3 Solutions will only provide technical support for users using recommended machine vision cameras (not Digital SLR cameras) for geometry capture.
- Images sizes larger than 10MP are not recommended as most PC’s do not have enough memory to process the dataset.
