DIY3d Scanner from Arduino

3D Model

DIY3d Scanner from Arduino Uno. Making 3D Scanner. 3D Scan Object At Home. This project is about making a 3d scanner at home. Which can scan any object & provide its X, Y & Z coordinates. These coordinates can then be imported for 3D printing. To replicate any old/broken object. This scanner is powered by an Atmega328p microcontroller onboard Arduino Uno. There is an ultrasonic sensor that provides the distance between itself & the object in front of it. This sensor is attached to a servo motor in such a way that the sensor is rotated from 45° to 135°. This gives us a 1 line scan of the object. Then the object is rotated 18° anticlockwise with the help of a dc motor connected. This motor rotates 20 times. Thus providing a full 360° scan of the object.I made this to ease my work. I had an object that I wanted to replicate by 3D printing. I want it to be a little bigger. That object was very complex to take its dimensions physically. This scanner helped me in scanning that complex object.
