Designing in Fusion360
I started by designing a sample model for my final project. The design uses an SG90 Servo Motor to power a cam mechanism, which makes the figure move its arm up and down.



Then I exported all the parts separately from Fusion360 and used Bambu Studio to slice the files.

I used a Bambu Lab A1 Mini printer to print the parts. Here is the finished print:

Assembly of the Figure
I assembled all the parts and just used tape to secure the servo in place since this is just a prototype.

As the last step, I connected the Servo to a Pi Pico and ran this code in Arduino IDE:

Here is a video of the final product:
Scanning
I used the Shining 3D Einstar 3D scanner along with the EXStar software.
I began by calibrating the scanner using the included white calibration board. Following the software’s instructions, I scanned the board from various angles to complete the process.
To start a new project, I followed these steps:
- New Project
- Scan Mode: Portrait
- Object Size: Medium & Large Objects
- Alignment Mode: Texture Alignment
- Resolution: 0.2
- Texture Scan: Enabled
After capturing the scan, I selected Mesh Model to generate a more solid object. Below are images showcasing different stages of the process.



I had already done this in the past just for fun, so I had some 3D printed scans of my head laying around :)
