Portable 3D Scanner

Q: 3. What is the difference between a 3D laser scanner and a structured-light 3D scanner?

A 3D laser scanner (like the Eagle LiDAR ) uses laser beams to capture precise measurements over large distances, ideal for architecture, surveying, and outdoor scanning. Structured-light scanners (like Seal, Moose, and Mole) project patterns of light to capture fine details with higher accuracy, making them the best cheap 3D scanners for design, reverse engineering, and 3D printing.
