RotaTable - Turntable for 3D scanning

RotaTable is a rotating platform for 3D scanning with Kinect, David3D, or Laser-Line-Scanners. It can also be used as a simple rotating display stand or adapted to be used for photogrammetry.

The Firmware for controlling the plate together with David 3D is available at https://github.com/fluetke/RotaTable

Feel free to improve and adjust it.

You might want to add a bit of grease to the ball bearing and a bit of foam to the interior to dampen the sound.
