When I enlarge the piece after merging the point clouds, I notice that there are some issues, but they can be improved with a little editing work. However, when building the mesh, some crusts appear that end up ruining the work. I applied the isolation and overlap tools, but it seems that the solution is worse than leaving all the noise that they had.
Any solution?
It has happened to me several times.
Hi @Esculpt , please send your issue and project file to our support team customer@revopoint3d.com to let them help you with your issue. Thank you!!
Hi @Esculpt
After merging please clean up the merged scan from overlapped points as that give you the âcrustâ effect and need to be cleaned before meshing .
Thatâs only one solution here with it .
Hi, PUTV, thank you, I agree, it seems like a good approach, however, I had already cleaned up the overlapping points (default setting) in each fragment after merging the points, after merging the pieces, and in the final composition, I will re-examine the settings of the overlapping points tool.
Perhaps it would be better to only apply it to the final composition, changing settings to observe the result of the intensity applied?
If I apply the tool at each step, it will be difficult to detect the changes.
Hello Gloria, thank you very much for your generous offer, but this is a work of art, an original piece, so I cannot share it.
That is why I am only showing an enlarged fragment to illustrate the problem.
I cannot show the entire piece.
Hi
Is it possible for you to share a photo only of this exact part of the object? Just to to understand better what part of the point cloud shouldnât be there.
For me it looks like the alignment isnât 100%.
I selected it with the connection tool and deleted it. With everything inside in brown, I applied the meshing.
The mesh continues to create different thicknesses; it creates a map with the layers instead of fusing them.
(Please excuse me, the photos have not been uploaded in the order of the story, but I think it is still understandable.)
Thanks Ivan, the alignment cannot be perfect because the parts have been obtained from different angles in order to capture areas that are difficult to access.
But the final adjustment of the alignment should be done by the software, at least thatâs what the scanner software I use for figures of other sizes does.
If you donât apply it to each step starting with each scans and final each merge you going to have double skin no matter what you do .
Unless you want to skip it all together after each merge and bring the final merge composition to Cloud Compared ( free software ) and remove all the overlapped skins at once .
I know it is lots of work but that is the proper workflow here , you also need to change the default settings under overlapped points and not use it just at default to get rid of everything the proper way but the full scale if needed.
Tip: when you scanning multiple angles make sure you keep the distance always the same between the object and scanner to ensure the proper accuracy in all angleâs scans
Never use the quick edit option for processing , it is recommended to use manual processing for all scans you merge.
Thank you very much, I will try scanning again. I remember using the overlapping points tool but with the standard settings.
I never use one-click editing. These are very difficult pieces with intricate surfaces. I use this scanner especially for small models with conical holes that converge from two sides. The short distance between the camera axes of this scanner makes it possible to capture the interiors. I try to maintain the same focal length, but even when raising and lowering the tripod, there are changes in distance when searching for the planes needed to capture the entire surface. This scanner has a very short range of use, which makes it very sensitive to changes in distance. This should be solved by the software.
I also crop all the edges that are not well defined before merging between shots.
What surprised me was finding âblue outer skin layersâ on the inside. I donât know why this is?
IMO thatâs due to some shifting in the alignment when merging. Like PUTV said, you might consider merging it in CloudCompare.
Thanks Ivan, Iâll study the videos. I only opened the application once and found it complicated, but Iâll try again.
I think the Mini 2 scanner is a good tool, but having to exit the Revopoint software does not reflect well on Revo Scan.
I understand that external applications are used to improve the quality of your scan results, but obtaining a usable mesh with each of the companyâs scanners is Revo Scanâs responsibility.
Thatâs why I insist on reviewing my technique when obtaining the mesh; there must be a user error.
@Esculpt scanning is an ART that you need to manage, practice and learn with each new object you are scanning , please do not blame the software for that . 3D scanning services are the most expensive services for a reason , because there are not quick fixes with a click button to produce professional results .
Each object need own workflow planning and precision to obtain the perfect results , you have your tools and they works perfectly . Take your time and practice more .
In my 3 years of scanning using Mini series or any other scan here I never got any double skin results.
You were given additional tip to use a free software to master even better your results in 3D scanning and being it on another level .
Please donât blame your skills on the software , there are no magic buttons , if you canât get it right scan again .
I spent 30 years to master my 3D scanning skills .. and trust me it was nothing that you have available today , basically newbies proof what you got here.
Since you not agreed on checking your files to see what really went wrong , it is hard to tell you the right direction straight away.
You need to decide if you really want to get help or just stay negative, because our time is very precious , donât take it for granted because you will stand alone in your journey.
