The process: How SmartPixels 3D scan an object step by step?

When 3D scanning a product with SmartPixels using a laser scan, the following general process is typically followed: 

Step 1: Preparation & Setup

The product to be 3D scanned is prepared by ensuring it is clean and free from any debris or dirt that could affect the scan quality. We start with meticulous preparation, strategically placing markers as reference points on the platform and product. The object is positioned precisely, capturing its desired form and orientation. Any reflective or shiny surfaces may require a special coating or markers to aid in the scanning process.

The scanning equipment is set up in a controlled environment to minimize external factors that could impact the scan quality. This includes controlling lighting conditions, reducing vibrations, and positioning the subject appropriately.

Step 2: 3D Scanning

The laser scanning process begins, where the laser scanner emits a laser beam that sweeps across the product's surface. The 3D scanner, equipped with multiple lasers and cameras, measures the time it takes for the laser to bounce back, capturing precise distance and geometric information immediately visible. Multiple scans are typically performed from various angles to capture a comprehensive view of the product.

The final scans faithfully represent the object, capturing intricate details like engravings and embossments, producing a detailed point cloud.

Step 3: Data Processing

Through a precise fusion of multiple scans, we create a unified scan for each product. Once the scans are complete, the captured data is processed using advanced data processing techniques. This involves cleanup, alignment, and refinement processes to enhance the quality and accuracy of the scan data. Noise reduction algorithms may be applied to remove any unwanted artefacts or imperfections.

Step 4: Quality Control

The processed scan data is rigorously reviewed and checked for any misalignments, inconsistencies, or errors. This ensures that the final scan data meets the required quality standards and accurately represents the product.

Step 5: Final Output

The high-quality scan data is then delivered to the client in a suitable format, such as a 3D point cloud or a high-quality mesh file that can be exported in OBJ or STL format, ready for further use in various applications. It can be utilized for 3D visualization, virtual reality, augmented reality, product design, or any other desired application.

People also ask about...

3D scanning is the process of capturing the geometry and appearance of real-world objects or environments to create digital representations in three dimensions. It involves using specialized equipment, such as 3D scanners, to capture the physical characteristics of an object or space and convert them into digital data. 
There are various techniques used in 3D scanning, including laser scanning, structured light scanning, photogrammetry, and volumetric scanning. Each technique utilizes different principles and technologies to capture the shape, texture, and color information of the subject. 
During the scanning process, the scanner emits signals, such as laser beams or light patterns, or captures multiple images from different angles. These signals or images are then processed to generate a digital representation of the object or environment. The resulting 3D scan data can be visualized, manipulated, and used for various purposes, including 3D modeling, animation, Augmented Reality, quality inspection, preservation of cultural artefacts, and more. 
To deliver usable output, our skilled team transforms the scan into a high-quality mesh. The resulting mesh can be seamlessly exported in OBJ or STL format, ready for various applications.
It usually takes us around 45 minutes per product geometry.
