Scanning Feedback—Color Mapping:
The View/Color Mapping options (listed below) display the object’s surface in color,
highlighting optimum or poor parts of the scan.
• Pseudo-Grayscale: displays a texture map based on the surface showing the ob-
ject in black and white and can enable finer details like text to become visible.
• Scanning Resolution: dictated by the speed of the Wand during each sweep. Red
is fine resolution/slow speed, blue is coarse resolution/high speed.
• Tracker Range: displays the distance between the Receiver (usually the Wand)
and the Transmitter during scanning. Green is optimal, red is poor.
• Wand-Point Range: displays the distance of the end of the Wand to the object’s
surface during scanning. Red is good.
