hello! I’m struggling a bit with dark hair even after setting max exposure per the video - can anyone please provide their settings an experience with scanning heads and getting the hair to scan properly? thanks @Revopoint-Jane

Hi!

what settings do you use including scanning mode and distance?

please look here:

> Hi! Please read this first. also check this video (there are many more useful videos on that channel worth watching!) [[Revopoint Bootcamp - How to Use Marker Tracking (Part 1) | POP 2 3D Scanner] ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVDeqBL_VPM) TL;DR: on many dark and/or shiny surfaces you still need some matting with scanning spray or cheaper with somthing like dry hair shampoo/ foot spray if you can wash the object after scanning . It all depends how reflective dark /shiny surface is to infrared light ,which Revopoint-scann…

I assume you scan in a closed environment so sunlight doesn’t disturb. use “dark” setting (Scan settings\> object type) and make sure depth camera exposure is set to auto , too. If Miraco still has difficulty picking hair I advise you using some dry shampoo.

Let us know if that worked for you.

Best regards  
Ivan

Please ensure that you have selected the correct mode as shown below and adjust the scanning distance bar to Excellent or Good.
