The file 'ScAnt – 3D Insect Scanner 3D Printer Model' is (stl,rar,ai,svg,dxf,ipt,stp) file type, size is 45.7MB.
scAnt is an open-source platform for the creation of digital 3D models of insects and small objects. scAnt consists of a scanner and a Graphical User Interface (GUI) which enable the automated generation of multi-view Extended Depth Of Field (EDOF) images. These images are then masked with a novel approach combining random forest-based edge-detection, adaptive thresholding, and connected component labelling and can be processed further with a photogrammetry software package of choice, including open-source options such as Meshroom, to create high-quality, textured 3D models. It combines various well documented open-source tools for image processing, such as Hugin, Enfuse, Exiftool, and Meshroom into an automated system with a user-friendly GUI. The resulting models can be used for research applications, conservation efforts, as well as video game development and 3D animations.
More details can be found in the associated publication
Example models, generated with scAnt, can be found on Sketchfab
