- Models that have more solid fills and well defined geometry scan much better and faster. In the example below, the scan takes less than 3 minutes to produce the 3d product of the model on the left. The software tries to fill out the holes and gaps in the original model but overall produces a good quality 3d model.
- Models that have a lot of gaps and very small geometric details are much harder to scan and don't produce high quality results. In the example below, the model has a good number of gaps, reflective material and organic materials like the grass (all of which are very hard to scan) and thus the 3d scan result is of a lower quality and looks very incomplete. Students should take note of this in the selection of models for 3d scanning.
- 3d scans that look incomplete can be fixed using the tools that Artec provides. However, if there are too many errors to be fixed, the output will differ greatly from the expected results. As seen in the example below, an attempt is made to fix the issues with the 3d scan on the left but the result on the right is not the best.
