This is an early pre release of the sweep-3d-scanner software package. The attached binary is a complete RaspberryPi image which can be unzipped and flashed to an SD card using etcher. Please see instructions.

NOTE: The software is still under heavy development, and should not be considered stable. This release has many known issues and bugs. Please read about them. Familiarize yourself with the known issues and then keep an eye out for odd behavior when using the scanner.
