    I ran across this project a couple of months ago. i built one and got it working but never tweaked it enough to get a great scan. less than 100.bucks and printable.

    How does it compare to 3D scanning with a Kinect, as that is about the same price point?

    There are lots of ways to use a Kinect V2 as a scanner, or even the old V1, but Microsoft made it really easy with the release of the 3D Scan and 3D builder apps for Windows 8-10.

    That seems like a very affordable option. Probably preferred over the ciclop device as it looks like higher resolution.

    they come out real nice.
