Cyberpunk Your Summer‘ post is this gem a project (and code) from user panicrun, turning the PocketC.H.I.P., along with a lightweight scanner, into an ultra-portable battery-powered scanning station. This process, known as scanography, produces flat, native scans of things in their natural habitat – including things that might not be flat, like logs or mushrooms.

We’re @nextthingco!
