And also this.

Take a look at Leica RTC 360. It's a survey grade terrestrial lidar scanner.

Angular accuracy 18” Range accuracy 1.0 mm + 10 ppm 3D point accuracy 1.9 mm @ 10 m 2.9 mm @ 20 m 5.3 mm @ 40 m

Leica Geosystems used to sell phase-based scanners. These units were actually rebadged Zoller+Frohlich scanners. But the partnership ended a few years ago when Leica introduced the Pxx series. Today the company only makes time-of-flight scanners.

Great project! but the title "3D scanning like a pro" is quite a stretch. Real 3D scanning pros use something like this Leica P40 scanner: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnmerVV5-T4

And produce outputs that look more like these: https://truviewglobal.leica-geosystems.com/welcome

With real-time kinematic service, our GPS receivers give you 8mm horizontally and 15mm vertically. And you will get 3mm hz and 4mm vertical with post processing.
