Did you write the 3d scanner from scratch? A c++ app? Just curious. With the interface did you utilize a GUI library or run it solely as a console app?

A few are written in Java, but most are in C. Each one is a console application.

Does it still have many issues with BRDF's that aren't lambertian?

Some of them are robust to them, while others make the assumption that the objects are strictly lambertian.

Are you setting up a grid and calibrating the camera off reference points?

Some are auto-calibrating, some need no calibration, while others require extensive calibration. A normal structured light application usually needs both intrinsic and extrinsic calibration, as well as gamma calibration. A coaxial setup is an example of a setup that needs no calibration.


Imagination is more important than knowledge.
