In December 2021, Revopoint announced its POP 2 3D scanner on Kickstarter, raising over $2.8 million from nearly 6,000 backers. Following the immense success of the campaign, the manufacturer is expanding its acclaimed 3D scanner line for users who wish to capture small-to-medium sized objects with incredible detail.

Now, Revopoint is launching yet another Kickstarter campaign to help fund its latest 3D scanner: Revopint MINI. A first of its kind device, Revopoint MINI leverages dual-camera blue light 3D scanning technology. This next-generation process packages industrial-grade accuracy into a compact and affordable device, making it both accessible and ideal for professional applications.

Not everyone needs a 3D scanner capable of capturing large-scale objects like automobiles or gigantic artifacts. Some users, both experts and beginners alike, simply want the ability to quickly scan small objects with intricate details. The Revopoint MINI is designed for the latter.

Let’s learn more about the Revopoint MINI 3D scanner, as well as how it compares to the manufacturer’s renowned POP 2.

Revopoint MINI: Big-Time Accuracy for Small, Highly Detailed Objects

Revopoint MINI is a compact 3D scanner specialized for smaller objects. Compared with POP 2, the single capture range on the MINI is smaller, but that doesn’t make it any less capable. In fact, this new blue light 3D scanner is able to achieve an exceptional accuracy of 0.02mm, making it more than capable of capturing incredible details with the click of a button.

According to Revopoint, MINI is ideal for scanning objects that are larger than 10 x 10 x 10mm large and smaller than 500 x 500 x 500mm. This broad range makes the 3D scanner ideal for several professional needs, including reverse engineering, industrial measurement, jewelry design, and much more.

While Revopoint MINI has a slightly more limited scope compared to the POP 2, at the heart of the two 3D scanners is blue light technology. Compared with traditional scanners, this groundbreaking technology delivers better results and less distortion. Generally speaking, blue light scanners are less sensitive to interference from outside light, enabling Revopoint MINI to capture high-detailed scans in well-lit and indoor environments.

Another similarity that Revopoint MINI shares with the POP 2 is a feature-rich and intuitive scanning process. Once the scanning process is complete, the 3D file can be directly transferred to a smart device. Revopoint has ensured cross-platform compatibility with the most widely used engineering or design software, enabling a seamless transition from scanning to post-processing.

Other features found packed within Revopoint MINI include a rapid scanning speed of 10fps. While the process is done quickly, the scanner doesn’t sacrifice depth or color. Instead, it is engineered to capture incredibly intricate details, essentially mirroring the digital scan with the real-life object – no details missing.

Weighing just 160 grams, compactness is also a standout feature of Revopoint MINI. The lightweight and portable design allows users to manually hold the scanner or secure it onto the tripod that comes with the MINI.

All in all, Revopoint MINI offers industry-grade accuracy, speed, and ease of use to professionals, hobbyists, and even beginners who wish to 3D scan smaller objects and capture the best possible detail.

Revopoint Has a Successful Track Record and 3D Scanning Ecosystem

Revopoint has already established a highly-respected position on the 3D scanning market, delivering on previous Kickstarter campaigns and building a comprehensive 3D scanning ecosystem and. In past crowdfunding campaigns, Revopoint has raised over $5 million to support 3D scanners such as POP 2.

Additionally, Revopoint has continued to refine its 3D scanning ecosystem, going beyond hardware enhancements and into its software: Revo Scan. Last month, the manufacturer released a new version of its 3D scanning software, which now allows users to set the minimum point pitch as 0.02mm, allowing more details to be captured. The new software update is available on both Windows and Mac.

With a proven track record and growing customer base, the Revopoint team believes they are on the brink of something groundbreaking with its new blue light technology 3D scanner.

“With our latest product, the Revopoint MINI, our goal was to do something revolutionary – to utilize the power and precision of blue light scanning so that consumers can realize the high resolution and incredible detail of this technique for their 3D modeling projects,” said Vivian Lee, CEO of Revopoint. “With a precision of 0.02mm, Revopoint MINI is capable of advanced applications such as reverse engineering, quality control, traceable 3D measurement, relic digitalization, and medical applications. Now, everyone has an affordable, portable, and reliable option for user-friendly optical scanning.”
