THE FLIP ARCHITECTURE SCANNER
We enjoyed week 4 3D scanning task but didn't end satisfied with what we saw potential to scan in architecture. So we thought about making a set for scanning objects but that also could scan spaces.
PROCESS AND IDEA
the idea
This scanner needs to solve the problem of scanning the back of the object twice and to scan spaces. That is why we divide the mechanism in 2 big parts:
- The arm: Where the phone will go up and down WHILE rotating around the object. For this piece we designed a kinf of vsolt that can guide the movement piece around the arm. And that can support the curve.
- The base: The piece of the base needs to support the rotation of the arm AND the support for the object that does not move
MECHANISMS
Here the challenge was to have a base that could rotate WHILE ALSO stay in its place to support the object in the inside mode.. That is why at the end we put a kind of support that also indicates the future programmation that the scanner has end its circuit.
mechanical test for the base rotation
