How to Scan Black/Reflective/Transparent Objects
In daily scanning, we often encounter objects with challenging materials such as deep black (light-absorbing), reflective (light-reflecting), and transparent (light-refracting). These materials make it difficult for scanners to capture accurate model data. Below are solutions for each type:
Adjust the IR exposure until the previewed point cloud model is clear and complete.
Blue Laser Mode:
Adjust the laser brightness until the laser lines in the preview are sharp and continuous.
Infrared mode: try to adjust the IR exposure until the previewed point cloud model is clear and complete
In addition, you can adjust the scanning angle and try to scan reflective objects at different angles to minimize light reflection and reduce the impact of reflection
If the above methods cannot solve the problem, it is recommended to spray the object with powder (spray developer), which can effectively control light reflection after spraying.
Before powder spraying
After powder spraying
Laser mode: Adjust the laser brightness until the previewed laser lines are clear and continuous
Objects made of transparent materials must be sprayed with developer before scanning, because the light projected by the scanner will refract and penetrate on transparent objects, and the acquisition camera cannot capture it.
Steps for using developer: Take AESUB volatile developer as an example
