Hello, I was planning to build a 3d laser scanner. Most of the tutorials reveal almost the process but there's a few things that becomes varied. Here's the parts that I'm thinking of using: Hardware 1 Nema 17 stepper motor 5w laser pointer Arduino Nano 20 Megapixel web cam Software Blender Her…

5w laser pointer 2a. Safety goggles 2b. Public indemnity insurance.

I think you got your information from this site: [image] DIY Arduino 3D Laser Scanner DIY Arduino 3D Laser Scanner: FabScan is an open-source, do-it-yourself 3D laser scanner.It started out as a Bachelor's thesis by Francis Engelmann, supervised by René Bohne. You can find official proje…

"There it sayst that you should use a 5mW Laser not a 5W laser" My apoplogies I meant 5mw, I misstyped (it was too late when I realized it). I actually looked into the Fab scan and if you compare both (from the raspberry Pi vs Arduino) and they're almost the same except Arduino gets short because o…

jremington: Yes. Even better, thank you

5W is not a pointer, that's a high power laser. Are you using optics to generate a line array from that?
Its certainly enough power to drill holes in the subject and instantly blind.
