Episode 8: What is the best 3D scanner?

In this episode of ScanTalks, we dig into a question everyone asks sooner or later: What’s the best 3D scanner?Spoiler: it’s not about the brand or the price tag. It’s about understanding how the different scanning technologies actually work and choosing the one that fits your real‑world needs.We walk through the basics in a simple, honest way as we talk about laser triangulation, structured light, depth cameras, photogrammetry, and LiDAR, and explain why each one shines in certain situations and struggles in others. We also talk about the difference between affordable, professional, and metrology‑grade scanners, and why the “right” choice depends entirely on your part, your environment, and your workflow.If you’re trying to make sense of the 3D scanning landscape without drowning in specs, this episode will help you see the big picture.
