With its latest Kickstarter campaign, Revopoint is touting the Range – a lightweight, handheld 3D scanner suited to “large objects.” At the time of writing, more than $1,244,000 has been pledged to its $10,000 goal, which was met within 30 seconds of the campaign going live.

Compatible with both iOS and Android devices, the Range features a single capture range of 360 x 650 mm, a scanning distance of up to 800 mm, plus single-frame precision of up to 0.1 mm, and a full-color RGB camera. There’s also a handle with a built-in power bank that provides up to two hours of power, as well as a detachable tripod. Revopoint claims the Range is ideal for large-scale scans such as cars, furniture, industrial parts – even the human body.

Standard packages for the Range start at around USD $400, with those pledging USD $659 or more receiving the premium package, which includes the 3D scanner and a remote-controlled turntable with a maximum load of 200 kg.

Of course, as with any Kickstarter campaign, we advise would-be backers to do their due diligence and exercise caution. Nothing is certain until the Revopoint Range has shipped and is in hand in April 2023 — so long as deadlines are met.

That said, the Range campaign follows three successful Kickstarter campaigns for Revopoint which, together, have raised a total of over $8 million for its POP, POP 2, and MINI 3D scanners. Amazon and Reddit reviews for these scanners seem to revolve around a “you get what you pay for” consensus, with most criticism being leveled at Revopoint’s scanning software.
