Week1 Narrative
My group and I are working on the 3D scanner project, my job was to connect the playstation eye webcam to my computer by using a software able to work with it .First,i plug the camera on my computer and i type this website: http://codelaboratories.com/downloads and i went down to CL EYE Platform Driver to download the driver .Second, i agree to the terms and conditions and once you finish downloading you have to accept to restart your computer to finish your installation. Once the installation is completed, click on Cl Eye test and it works.now we can use the Ps3 eye on my computer.

Week2 Narrative
''Tell a detailed story describing what you did for your team over the first weekend. Link to any CDIO documents you are working on that need to be considered for project points. Compare your task with what you actually did.'' After downloading CL eye test webcam, i went again to makerscanner.com to download makerscanner because i realize it is the software able to produce a scan. My mission was to be able to reproduce and to fix the image once we make our first test.Second, i download Meshlab and Blender which are two drivers useful to fix the image in 3D. During the first presentation, my mission was to present our group and the project and i did it. During the presentation, my computer was connected to the webcam and my partner was holding the laser. On makerscanner i clicked start scan, choose the distance between the wall and the webcam.Once we finished the preparation,we started our scan and i was at the computer to verify that everything is right.

Week3 Narrative
For this week,first we are making the support for the webcam and laser so to do that, we install Makerware which we allow us to see all the dimensions of the support so we can save it on a memory card and put it on maker-bot. I succeed to import some scan file with Blender or Meshlab for making the scan look like a 3D scan but i have a real problem to solve this issue. When i rty to remove the bad part of our scan, i failed and i remove everything so maybe i need to be used with Blender and Meshlab. This is my ultimate goal.

Week4 Narrative
After follow all the steps on makerscanner.com, we remove all the worst parts on Blender, but now we cannot export the scan file to meshlab. All this week was dedicated to solve this problem, we present in class our problem and one of the solutions was to download notepad 2.
