There's a number of options and I was a bit overwhelmed, is there a comprehensive write up, copypasta, or something of the like?

Your best bet is to do some searching around and find a company to do it for you. I work for one of those companies. I play with the real deal laser scanners every day and can confirm that there sure is a reason why a creality handheld scanner costs a couple hundred bucks and a Ziess handheld scanner costs 70k.
