Depends on your definition of high resolution. With a laser in most situations you will get an accuracy of about 0.5 to 1 mm, unless you start using high end (industrial) lasers & camera's.
Cons:
- Every time you move the scanner from your printer, you will have to re-do the calibration process. This can take about 5 minutes.
- With no moving laser, there are large parts that are 'un-scanable'
- The printer is white. Which is the worst color for 3D scanning background ever.
- It's not that cheap. You will need a decent camera (100-150 euro), a laser bandpass filter (80 euro), a semi decent laser (20 ish euro) and a rotation platform (20-50 euro).
- Distance of the camera to the to-be scanned object is small, which forces you to use cameras with a large angle, which tend to have a lot of fish eye effect. This is killing for your quality.

Love the idea! Some parts could even be printed if accuracy allows for it. I'm in for working on this one!
@cons: volume is limited, but if you pick the parts so that it could also be mounted outside of the frame(i.e. design/sell a bigger housing) than you have both the easy and cheap, and the larger stuff!
