What are the differences between MINI 2, POP 3, RANGE 2, and INSPIRE?

Scanning Scenarios:
The MINI 2 is designed for professionals who want to scan smaller objects such as industrial parts, jewelry, small statues, etc., providing precise detail capture.
The POP 3 is designed for professionals who want to scan medium-sized objects, such as engine parts or vases.
The RANGE 2 is designed for professionals who want to scan large objects such as furniture, people, and vehicles, ensuring efficient and thorough scanning results.
The INSPIRE is for hobbyists, 3D printing enthusiasts, and makers who want to scan medium-sized objects.

What are the differences between MINI 2 and MINI?

The Revopoint MINI 2 is the newest 3D scanner in the MINI series. It doubles the Depth and RGB cameras' resolution, and has a bigger working distance and a larger single capture range than MINI. Also, it is upgraded in hardware: 9-axis IMU for smart tracking, White Flash LEDs for better marker tracking and calibration, tactile buttons for real-time exposure adjustment, and USB Type-C connector & Wi-Fi 6 for smooth connection.

How does MINI 2’s IMU work?

MINI 2’s IMU is a 9-axis IMU with a gyroscope, accelerometer, and magnetometer that all work together to help MINI 2 understand its location as you move the scanner around an object. This, in turn, helps MINI 2 provide smoother frame stitching and helps eliminate any faulty frames captured caused by shaking or moving too fast.

How do I recalibrate the MINI 2’s IMU?

In Revo Scan 5’s Home Screen, click the settings icon next to MINI 2’s name. Then click on the Start Calibration button to start the process. Follow the on-screen instructions to recalibrate your MINI 2.

Do you need a powerful PC to use the MINI 2?

No, the MINI 2 ’s algorithms and internal chip do most of the processing.
Minimum specs: Intel Core i5, 8GB RAM.
Recommended specs: Intel Core i7, 16GB RAM or better.
No discrete GPU like an Nvidia or AMD graphics card is needed to use MINI 2.

What technology does the MINI 2 use?

MINI 2 uses high-resolution blue structured light, dual-depth cameras, and advanced algorithms to output detailed 3D models.

What formats can Revo Scan export?

Revo Scan can export your models in PLY, OBJ, STL, ASC, 3MF, GLTF and FBX for compatibility with most 3D modeling, slicer, and CAD software.

Software
Does MINI 2 have 3D scanning software?

Yes, the MINI 2 comes with Revo Scan for free. It is compatible with iOS, macOS, Android, and Windows devices. In Revo Scan, you can perform scans and post-processing.

Can objects scanned with MINI 2 be 3D printed?

Yes, the scanned models can be output in STL format, which is compatible with most slicer software.

Is third-party scanning software available for MINI 2?

No, MINI 2 is only compatible with the Revo Scan software, which can be downloaded from our website or your device's app store. The models generated by the scan are compatible with nearly all third-party 3D modeling software.

Does MINI 2 need internet access to work?

No, MINI 2 doesn’t need to be connected to an internet-capable network to scan.

How do I export scanned models on my phone?

Ensure your phone and PC are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. Don’t minimize the app or turn off your phone's screen during the file transfer, or the transfer will fail.

Accessories
What are marker points used for?

Marker points are stuck on or around objects without geometric features so the MINI 2 can track what it is scanning. When using Marker points, place them in irregular patterns with around 1-2 cm between the markers across the object you’re scanning, and ensure that there are at least 5 marker points always in the frame when scanning.

What is Magic Mat?

Magic Mat is a 50 x 50 cm black mat with highly reflective marker points across its surface that is designed to make scanning featureless objects much easier by removing the need to place marker points on the item.

How do I use the Mini Turntable?

Connect the Mini turntable to either your computer or a plug to power it, then use the controls on the Mini turntable’s side. Detailed operating steps can be found in the Quick Start Guide.

Scanning Tips
Do more frames scanned mean better 3D scan accuracy?

No, repeated scanning makes your model worse. One scan close to the object will result in the best accuracy.

Are there any objects that the MINI 2 can’t scan?

Like most 3D scanners, highly reflective, transparent, or dark objects can only be effectively scanned using 3D scanning spray to coat the object’s surface.

Can I use the MINI 2 outdoors?

Sorry. With blue light technology, outdoor scanning is not recommended. However, if you must scan outside, wait for the sun to set or a very overcast day.

What’s the minimum size of an object MINI 2 can scan?

MINI 2 has a minimum scan volume of 10 mm x 10 mm x 10 mm.

Can MINI 2 scan objects smaller than 10 x 10 x 10mm?

Yes, but advanced scanning skills and post-process are needed.
