Hi Revopoint Community.
I’m writing because I’d like to share with you something strange I encountered whose cause I don’t understand, but that I think is important to report.
I recently purchased a fantastic Miraco. Coming from a Pop 2, it’s a definitely significant generational leap both in terms of the device and the software. I have even more desire than before to scan things and digitize them.
In my latest scanning attempt, however, I encountered a problem and a discrepancy between the Miraco software (version 1.2.6.5) and the Windows desktop app Revo Scan (version 5.5.4).
I’m attaching some screenshots to show the differences, but essentially the problem is as follows:
-
With the same data and raw point cloud, the fusion of the raw points occurs differently between Miraco and the Desktop software.
-
On Desktop, artifacts are generated that do not appear on Miraco.
Desktop Version
Miraco Version
From the screenshots as well, you can see that it’s the same project: number 20251205_172402 in both cases. These are the Fusion Parameters:
-
Fusion Method: ADVANCED
-
Point Distance (mm): Minimum possible value (0.53 on Miraco, 0.34 on RevoScan on PC)
I transferred the files from Miraco to PC via Wi-Fi and initially thought that this transfer method might have caused file corruption leading to the artifacts. So I tried transferring the project via USB (using the cable in the package) but the problem didn’t disappear: the artifacts appeared again.
The only thing that comes to mind, therefore, is that the Desktop software (version 5.5.4) and the one inside the Miraco (version 1.2.6.5) work differently. So to avoid defects or issues, I had to generate the point cloud fusion on Miraco and not on PC.
I hope this post can be useful to the developers to improve the already good PC version. I’m available to provide further details about the scan if this can be helpful for gathering information about it.
Happy scanning to all
