Scan

Laser scan can quickly and accurately acquire 3D data of the scanned object. Featured in contact-free measurement, high sampling rate of data, active emission of scanning light source, low requirements for use, and strong environmental adaptability, laser scan can be used in complex environments, and acquire complete 3D data of large and complex objects into the computer, thereby reconstructing the corresponding 3D model as well as various geometric data concerning the points, lines, surfaces, and solids.

Scan Mode

Mode
Description
Scan Mesh Directly scan to generate mesh. This mode is suitable for most scanning scenarios.
Note:
When the global markers are not fully scanned, you can click Add new global markers to scan new global markers in Scan Mesh.
Partial HD Scanning This mode is suitable for:
  • There are missing data in a specific area after scanning an object in Scan Mesh.
  • There are missing data in a specific area of the imported project, requiring you to delete the data in that area and rescan it.
    You can both save scanning time and get an ideal scanned data by this way.
    		•
    Photogrammetry This mode is only supported in Trak Mode.
    This mode is suitable for:
  • Need to scan large objects.
  • Need to move the model and scan it from different angles.
  • The external environment is unstable during scanning.
    The scanner does not project laser lines during the scanning process.
    You can import the global markers file and scan for adding new global markers.
    After completing the scan, you can save the data or switch to Scan Mesh to continue scanning.
    You can place a calibration bar in the scanning scene to ensure the accuracy.
    		•
    Scan Markers This mode is only supported in Laser Mode.
    By scanning the surface of an object with markers, you can quickly obtain the global markers data.
    The scanner does not project laser lines during the scanning process.
    You can import the global markers file and scan for adding new global markers.
    After completing the scan, you can save the data or switch to Scan Mesh to continue scanning.

    Note

    Click Open global markers file to import the global markers file.

    Scan Operation

    Press the scan button on the scanner or click the icons in the interface to switch among Preview, Scan, and Pause.

    Function Icon
    Description
    Preview
    		To preview the scanned data and adjust scan parameters for a better scanning effect. The scanned data won't be saved.
    Scan
    		To start scanning. During scanning, keep the scanner right toward the object to be scanned at a proper distance according to the prompt in the interface. You can adjust the brightness of the scanner according to the brightness and color of the object during scanning. The scanned data will be saved.
    Pause
    		To pause scanning. And you can edit the scanned data.
