Scanning Dark, Transparent, or Reflective Objects Like most 3D scanners, the INSPIRE will struggle to scan transparent, reflective, or black objects without first lightly coating the object's surface with scanning spray, baby powder, or dry shampoo. Hard-to-scan Surfaces Surface Features Possible Solutions 1 2023 REVOPOINT 3D ALL RIGHTS RESERVED INSPIRE Quick Start Guide Black or very dark Apply scanning spray or fine objects powder materials Shiny or reflective Apply scanning spray or fine objects powder materials Metal or electroplated Apply scanning spray or fine surfaces powder materials Transparent objects Apply scanning spray or fine powder materials Scanning Objects with Plain Surfaces Scanning objects with simple geometric features, like a football or wine bottle, requires using Magic Mat, marker stickers, or reference objects and scanning in Marker Mode. 1. Place the Marker stickers (or Magic Mat under the object) on or around the objects surface irregularly and ensure there are at least 5 Marker stickers per frame for the entire scan, or the scanner will lose track. 2. Alternatively, reference objects (these are any objects with distinct features that can be easily tracked) can be used. Place 1 to 3 reference objects around the item you are scanning for the 3D scanner to track. If doing this, you can use the scanner in Feature tracking mode for the scan. Please scan the QR code to watch a Marker stickers video tutorial. 2023 REVOPOINT 3D ALL RIGHTS RESERVED 2 Color Scanning For optimal color scanning, please ensure that the object is evenly lit with soft light and that there are no dark or hard shadows. 3 INSPIRE Quick Start Guide About INSPIRE The Revopoint INSPIRE is an infrared structured light 3D scanner.
