Received the scanner and slowly going through the learning curve.
In Revoscan there is the “Depth Exposure” and “Laser Brightness” settings.
What us the methodology behind using these settings?
Also when scanning pockets/ recesses (1"-3" deep x 1"- 1.5" wide x 3"-6" long) with features in the bottom of the pocket, what would be the best scanning method (cross line or parallel lines) to pick up that geometry? Does depth exposure need to be adjusted to capture this pocket geometry?
Take this with a grain of salt- ive noticed on surfaces that dont reflect all that much information back to the scanner that high exposure settings capture more of the information easier, at the cost of potential ‘noisy’ point cloud data. I scanned a red tail light with built in reflectors, a clear lens, and the regular red lens- i really sped up the scan with higher exposure when compared to lower settings, but there was alot of noise in the point cloud that the software had to clean up due to it.
I would say I have been seeing the same thing. When set to auto the scanner is hardly sensing anything.
To be specific- using only marker blocks i scanned a shiny black car using the auto exposure settings in crossed-line mode and it worked fantastic- exposure was 1 to 2 the whole time. As soon as i scanned the tail light, the clear lens for the reverse light didn’t want to show up, everything else did. Once i upped the exposure, bingo!
Revopoint just released a new youtube tutorial today- im checking it out now to see if there are any tips.
