Great video. Definitely shows the differences and why one is a better choice over the other while still not deterring anyone from buying either one.
I like that it's all in one. I really need to consider investing in one. I do so many projects where I spend so much time measuring things when scanning would do the job in minutes.
@@RicheyBLS it's a massive time saver
I just got the einstar and the learning about how the vega fits my needs better gives me major buyers remorse.
Can you still return it and get the other one?
@@JakeAlexander. I got it on ebay from a liquidation for ~$600, so I'd have to sell it.
It also looks like my pc (i7 4th, 16gb ram) is not able to work on such large meshes well. I should probably spend the money I would have from the einstar vega into upgrading my pc.
Definitely not coping :(
Very useful, good to have the two side by side. Thanks
wow that reconstruction was immaculate
The mobile one is for me I like the idea of being able to stick in pocket and scan random shit... That's so cool
@@2STATIC_4LYFE I've been bringing it to places i never thought i would bring a 3D scanner lol
@@DingDongDrift have u had any Karen's bother u while using it
@@2STATIC_4LYFE not yet. I've scanned at Target, home Depot, Toyota dealership lol, and some other places
@@DingDongDrift yo the dealership got me... That's crazy 🤣
@@2STATIC_4LYFE bro i got scans of all dem yoters 🤣
🎉🎉🎉get er done king ding dong. Make it happen. Love the channel brotha.
Perfect for RC Builds and 3d printing parts
Bro this is the scanner I am looking at and loved the short vid of using it in the store.
Just bought one on Amazon mainly because of this video, I hope they’ll be sending you a check!
@@wesrc13 if you used the link in description they would have lol, not Amazon though
So whats interesting is I had previously emailed Shining3D about the Einstar about the power brick, because I don't have a garage or access to an outlet near my car and I wanted to scan the side of my car for side skirts/etc. I was thinking about buying an FJ cruiser for a daily which has a 115v power outlet (capable of producing 400w) and had asked if I could plug into that to scan. It actually turns out that the power brick is just a switch adapter, which takes 100-240v down to 12v 5A and 60W. So you could actually buy a cigarette lighter power inverter, plug it into the running car you want to scan, and scan that way. Obviously you'd need to still have a laptop but that way it would technically be "mobile". Pretty interesting work around for those who might not have a garage or wants to do mobile scanning.
@@Noahh_jp yea but think about how long the wire would have to be to scan an entire car?
You could literally use a voltage regulator and power tool battery's to get rid of the stupid power wire.
Great Review, thank you ! I already have the MIRACO Pro Plus and was wondering how well the VEGA works in sunlight. You answered my questions perfectly.
Now to convince work to buy one so I can use it at home 😂
@@madeupcreations6168 lol that's always how it goes
This review was actually really good, thanks!
the rear of the car's body kit looks insane!!!!
@@LinkedTom yea it's gonna be nuts
@@DingDongDrift cant wait!!!
1500 is still out of my budget, but I bet in a year or two something of this scale will hit the 1k or less budget. I am excited for the future of scanners. I do think 1500 is very good though for what you get here.
2k now. Yikes.
Not sure if you checked it out but KIRI engine app could work! It's free with paid premium but it's let me do some items for blendr and creating 3d prints
@@chrisf8584 While they discounted the previous EinStar. So i guess you should wait for the Vega to get discounted.
@@chrisf8584 $2250 for the bundle on sale right now for $1800. yeah way outta my price range
Tariffs and popularity and you'll be lucky if it's 15,000 in a year
thank you! thank you! thank you!
We have a handy 3D at work. Its super nice
I wonder if you can bypass the cloud storage, and offload scans right to your local network?
Yeah man. That EULA....IM CURIOUS. pushing all this to the cloud yikes. But if you can do offloading manually (I'd imagines it's got a USB C port. ) then this is money
Vega you say? Idk, but sounds like it might be the best 3D scanner ever made 😎👍🏼
it's pretty incredible
Alright ima get a Vega. 😂
I’m cool with just using the Vega to take multiple scans if sizing is an issue
Wow I need one
good video, the price is crazy.....
when you look at other devices with the capabilities of this one you'll understand
Great video, I'm going to buy a Vega soon.
I kinda wonder what pairing the einstar shining with something like an ROG Ally would look like.
@@flipsidezw does the rog ally run windows?
@@flipsidezw oh doesn't matter, you need nvidia graphics for the einstar
Great video! One thing I think I would have liked to see is to you try scanning the rear of the car in HD mode. Even if it didn't work or isn't possible, just seems like something that would be good to know more about.
Not trying to criticize or anything like that, this is a great video! Just one thing I'd like to understand better. 🙂
@@yayinternets that would take forever lol, hd mode is really only meant for small objects
@ Makes sense and I figured as much! Like I'd assume it would even just run out of memory or something and not let you do the whole thing.
Thanks for the reply and great video!
@yayinternets that's exactly it, HD mode can do 5000 frames while fast mode can do 15k, due to the higher point resolution
@@DingDongDriftmakes sense and thanks for the info!
I need one of these scanners and a 3d printer soooo bad
Would you say this is your favourite scanner at the memento?
definitely
Looks like they've been watching the Revopoint Miraco.
Thanks for the comparison! Did you try scanning the rear end with the Vega in HD mode? Then you'd be up close like the Einstar was. Would they be comparable then?
@@LukeTansell-s3b no in HD mode it would be way closer than the einstar and would take forever to scan the rear end that way. HD mode is really for small objects
hi.
how about just plane flat surfaces like walls etc, for ex, could be whole interior of the house scanned by this, what is the limit by ram, polygon counts etc, can be scan done in sections and combined later in post?
as an architect, it would come handy to me as interior scanner (not so much furniture, but walls, installations etc) , but also for some small things for hobby etc. any chance to try some house interior scans with it?
thank you.
@@izoyt it can not scan flat walls, you're better off just using a VR headset or phone with lidar capabilities.
@@DingDongDrift thnx. this doesn't work as (ir ) lidar, i'm guessing photogrametry then?
@@izoyt this is IR, but not all LIDAR is the same. Car LIDAR is nothing like your phone. It's a generic term. This simply can't see far enough to be used for an entire room.
@@DingDongDrift i didn't mean as regular 360 scan with laser, but as scanning with movement, as smaller objects. but i get it, this is not up to task.
I have a bumper that doesn't quite fit right. What software do you use to adjusttge scanned product?
Company just bought one. It will arrive 1st week of November.
@@Theprofessor1212 nice! You're gonna have fun!
About what spatial resolution can I get, 0.05mm?
And then for a 10x10x10cm object, how long does the scan take, without processing?
Is a laptop still needed for editing the model once scanned/created, or can all the editing be done on the Vega (same software as the einstar?)?
@@atrank only thing you can do on the Vega is what i showed
How do you print where do you go to print like your fenders for the car can you go somewhere or you have to then buy a gigantic printer? Thank you
@@LuisGonzalez-bh9qr all your questions can be answered by watching 🌈✨*more of my channel* ✨ 🌈
So is the scanner, scanning an object at 1:1 scale? New to scanners so this might be a dumb question.
@@RigEMac yes
Is this a useful 3d scanner for scanning large expensive furniture? My clients runs a premium furniture store and they wish to create 3D models of select large pieces of furniture. What other 3D scanners work well for such an application apart from the Vega? Please help
@@shivtejreddy yes
I’m new to 3D scanning but not printing. Been looking into a scanner and this maybe the one.
My question is do scanners “scan” to scale? Say I scan a motorcycle gas tank and upload it into the software is it dimensionally accurate or is it like in fusion360 when you input a canvas or image you have to calibrate it? Thanks!
@@user-hb2ve3md6c that's the entire point of scanners, to have a real to scale object straight into your modeling software
So what do you do with the scan once you have it???
whatever you want
I get that you are making meshes of your scans. But I don't get what you are doing with your scans. Are you scanning your car so that you can have an onscreen model to look at? Or, are you trying to make parts for your car with a 3D printer? If you are printing them, I would like to see how you post process the scans to make a 3D compatible model? Do you cover that in a video?
Dude, almost every single video he made has to do something with 3d printed parts for his drift car. He basically shows the whole process of making custom panels from start to finish XD Just browse and be amazed
Does the Einstar provide basically the same functionality if you are willing to use the laptop? I already have a powerful Macbook Pro (M3 Pro) and would really prefer the Einstar spend vs the Vega. I get that the Vega is really convenient not having to drag out the laptop but that costs at like a $1000 cost.
@@jamesrusso6739 no the einstar can't scan small objects
@@DingDongDrift The more I research these and the more reviews I read the more indecisive I get.
Can you do HD on large areas? Just keeping the device close. For example could you do this same car scan on the Vega in HD?
@@ryanliumith maybe, but you would lose accuracy over a large distance not to mention it would take forever to do
Can you merge 2 scans of the same object, or do you have to do merging on a laptop/computer?
I think merging requires a computer
Not so sure but I think you like Makita…
Looks like a really good product but for 2k? That's insane. I can't wait for 3d scanning to be cheaper.
2k is cheaper.
@digital0785 I mean affordable.
@@neonnerd13642k is affordable considering only a few years ago it was 5 figures to get a useful scanner.
Hmm the comparison at the end. Think I'll stay with my einstar and skip the vega. The vega scan looked very blobby where the einstar was just missing some data.
@@JCRacefab to be fair the vega scan took seconds where the einstar was minutes
@@DingDongDrift true, workflow seems way better with the vega.
@@JCRacefab yea it's really fast, only reason i want one
Always great videos.
Hope you are doing well my friend.
How would you suggest getting more into this? Would make a great video as well as the process
Just start modeling, once you reach the point where you feel confident in modeling any shape you want, pick up a scanner or printer
I have to scan engine, gearbox and a vehicle shell to be able to design chassis and roll cage in CAD. Feels like the Vega will leave me short in one of these areas. The shell is probably the important use case and I'd like 0.5mm accuracy over 1 metre what would you recommend given I have a MacBook Pro with M1 chip and 16G memory
A workstation laptop with 128gb ram and 16gb rtx video card
Can you scan the human head with eyes open, or does this emit harmful waves?
@@tracyhendenshott7119 yes you can
2k is a problem? Try 7k for my einscan H. 2k is insanely cheap..
I would like to see some comparison with Revopoint Miraco Plus. What is better with Einstar?
@@1MTEDDY larger FOV in fast mode and higher detail in HD mode.
@@DingDongDrift I need a 3D scanner and I was checking that Einstar Vega. But it still requires Nvidia GPU 😕 I have only 6950 XT and I thought that I would get away with all in one 3D scanner. Maybe next year when 5090 comes out..
@@1MTEDDY vega doesn't need a pc at all
@@DingDongDrift their support team said the opposite. Maybe only their desktop software if you don’t edit those scans directly in Vega. So this Vega is not sending any data remotely to your PC via their Shining server or something like that? Can I use some other AMD supported software with plain scans from Vega? I need some scanner for 3D printing and to make car parts as well.
@@1MTEDDY it's probably for Star vision, which i didn't even install and was able to import the scans through the cloud straight into Maya
Can you use it without having to log in to their service/server/cloud?
@@Chris2phaBrown yes
Try Polycam for iphone
tell me you can also use it as a phone that has a 1 month battey life
Does this require any subscription service?
@@ericm3060 nope

@@TitanFPV yessir!
I scann peoples propertys 10m by 10m. i currently use my Iphone and i cant find anything better under 10k. can fast mode handle 10m by 10m area? cheers yo
this is not for room scale scanning
Is there really no audio to this video?
@@takeonparis there is, must be something on your end
Great scanner, will keep this on a wishlist since the price is a little up there
It's definitely worth it
@@DingDongDrift I do RE work for a living using software like polyworks and geomagic with Faro laser line probes, been looking for a hobby grade scanner for years and this does seem like the one to get. Thank you for the vids!
@@southernrock20 this really is a one for all scanner, it can do everything
price is wild but good vid
you should look up the price of other scanners capable of what this can do.
1500 is affordable. That's nice

@@Shrm4n there's a shirt of the outro too lol
einstar vega vs einstar?
I’m looking for a decent scanner for my business but 2k atm man that’s more expensive than my X1 😂
@@romeo032982 pretty small investment if it's for a business
$1800 currently.
BMW scans your car tells if your alignment is off
Nice, but if it’s strictly tied to the cloud, no thanks.
you dont need an Nvidia GPU, thats just your personal bias
go read the tech specs right now on the einstar website. it's unbearably slow with an AMD GPU.
It's $2000 now.

@@blaqlabspodcast5816 oof
@@DingDongDrift don't get me wrong I'm totally jazzed by the increase in technology but I wish they would roll out more updates for the earlier units so it could at least keep up with new Scanners from the same company that now cost less than a third
Scan everything anywhere if you have 1500 to spend if not scan something sometimes with the ferret pro for 300 if you have it if not with your phone with free limited apps if not than just whatch youtibe videos on how to scan everything anywhere and wait until you have the money to buy it and the porsche😂😂😂😂😮😮😢😢😢
