<p>I am trying to make a structured light 3D scanner using single camera, light projector and a turntable.</p>

<p>After days on Google I did not find any reliable open source project which I can get to work.  <a href="https://github.com/jakobwilm/slstudio" rel="noreferrer">SLStudio</a> really seemed a good choice but did not compile properly. </p>

<p>I was wondering if anyone knows a good open source which they have used with the same kind of setup? Any help would be really appreciated. I am blocked here.</p>
