Ideal settings for accurate nose measurements Miraco Plus 3D Scanner

Hello,

I am currently planning a project using the Miraco Plus 3D scanner that involves taking scans of human noses and measuring the length of different parts of it (some areas can be less than 5mm). I want to the measurements to be as accurate as possible. Are there any strategies/settings I can use to maximize the accuracy of my scans? So far, I am planning on using high accuracy mode, one shot, and 2x zoom. Any other tips would be appreciated :slight_smile:

Hi @spammy33

Remember human noses don’t have as much features so be careful to use too close scanning , it is better to capture nose / lips area using Near mode at 1x with Continuous mode .

Single shot mode requires more than 1 shot to capture a 3D object because one single shot is not a 3D , you need more than one single shot at different angles to capture 3D form .

I would recommend you use a tripod for stabilization , let the person rest their head on a chair or close to the wall for stability

For best quality import your project to Computer for processing at higher quality

I guess you will need a little practice to get best results .

Yes you can , use the smaller 3 mm markers and switch to marker mode , one thing , the person can’t do any expressions while scanning and breathe through the open mouth slowly
