What do you do if you're a Product Designer dealing with unreliable 3D scanning tools?

由人工智能和领英社区提供技术支持

As a product designer, you may need to use 3D scanning tools to create realistic models of your designs, test their functionality, or showcase them to clients. However, not all 3D scanners are reliable, and you may encounter issues such as low resolution, inaccurate measurements, distorted shapes, or missing details. How can you deal with these challenges and ensure that your 3D scans are high-quality and accurate? Here are some tips to help you out.

1 Choose the right scanner

The first step is to choose a 3D scanner that suits your needs and budget. There are different types of 3D scanners, such as laser, structured light, photogrammetry, or handheld, and each one has its own advantages and limitations. You should consider factors such as the size, shape, material, and complexity of the objects you want to scan, the level of detail and accuracy you require, the speed and ease of use of the scanner, and the compatibility with your software and hardware. Do some research and compare different options before you invest in a 3D scanner.

Maybe the scanner is fine and you are not reliable on choosing the right tool: Before choosing the right scanner, it's essential to analyze the project requirements and objectives. Have a clear understanding of what you need from a 3D scanning tool and how it aligns with your project goals, sometimes, the solution may not be a traditional 3D scanning tool at all, before jumping to the conclusion that a 3D scanner is the not reliable, it's essential to consider other options that could potentially better meet your needs for example photogrammetry techniques, drone-based photogrammetry or LiDAR scanning. ??

2 Prepare the object and the environment

The next step is to prepare the object and the environment for the 3D scanning process. You should make sure that the object is clean, dry, and free of any dust, dirt, or grease that could affect the scan quality. You should also remove any parts that are not relevant to the scan, such as labels, stickers, or accessories. If the object has a shiny, transparent, or dark surface, you may need to apply some spray or powder to make it more visible to the scanner. You should also choose a suitable location for the scanning, preferably with a plain background, stable lighting, and minimal noise and vibration.

3 Follow the instructions and best practices

The third step is to follow the instructions and best practices of your 3D scanner. You should read the manual and watch some tutorials to learn how to set up, calibrate, and operate the scanner correctly. You should also follow some general guidelines, such as maintaining a consistent distance and angle between the scanner and the object, moving the scanner slowly and smoothly, avoiding sudden movements or changes in direction, and covering all the angles and details of the object. You should also check the preview of the scan on your screen and make sure that there are no gaps, holes, or errors.

4 Edit and refine the scan

The final step is to edit and refine the scan using a 3D software. You should import the scan into a compatible software and inspect it for any flaws or imperfections. You should also use some tools and features to enhance the quality and accuracy of the scan, such as cropping, smoothing, aligning, scaling, measuring, or adding textures and colors. You should also export the scan in a suitable format for your purpose, such as STL, OBJ, or PLY. You should also save a backup copy of the scan in case you need to make any changes later.
