Holden Observatory -- 3D Scanning a Full Size Building!
Source: Thingiverse by ibudmen
The Holden Observatory -- 3D Scanning a Full Size Building! is a free printable 3D model from Thingiverse by ibudmen. After scanning a few people, some art, and even my cat I was approached by Arland Whitfield, founder of Skyworks, with the idea to put our heads together & scan something BIG. You can download the STL file from the original listing below and print it at home.
About this model
After scanning a few people, some art, and even my cat I was approached by Arland Whitfield, founder of Skyworks, with the idea to put our heads together & scan something BIG. The building we decided on was Holden Observatory on Syracuse University's campus, being one of the oldest buildings in the area and at a little over 2 stories tall it was the perfect sized challenge to try and bite off. !Scanning Holden -------------------------------------- ##PROCESS Study From my experiments scanning regular sized objects, I knew there were 3 basic angles we needed to capture in order to get the scan. 1. Low and angled up 2. High and angled down 3. Directly above and straight down !Scanning Holden To read more about our process for scanning a full size building check out the writeup!
