The Don’ts of 3D scanning: Scanning Environment
The Don’ts of 3D scanning: Scan Object
Powdering or spraying objects that are highly reective, translucent, or transparent
before scanning will likely yield better scans. We recommend using baby/talcum
powder, matte spray paint, or hairspray for optimal results.
• Don’t scan with camera facing excessively
bright or reective background elements
(windows, mirrors, computer screens, glass
or metal objects, etc).
• Don’t light the object in a way that
creates a shadow.
• Don’t scan in a dark or dimly lit room
• Don’t attempt to scan objects that
are too large to t on the scanner turntable
• Don’t plug into a USB hub
• Don’t Move or touch an object while
it’s being scanned.
• When powdering or spraying an
object, don’t do it when it’s on the
scanner turntable
