Product Usage Instructions

Software Download

To use the POP 3 3D Scanner, you need to download the Revo Scan software. For Windows and macOS systems, you can download it from Revopoint’s website https://www.revopoint3d.com/download/.

Scanning Dark, Transparent, or Reflective Objects

When scanning transparent, reflective, or black objects, the POP 3 3D Scanner may face difficulties. To improve scanning results, lightly coat the object’s surface with scanning spray, baby powder, or dry shampoo. The following table suggests possible solutions for scanning hard-to-scan surfaces:

Scanning Objects with Plain Surfaces

To achieve optimal color scanning results, ensure that the object is evenly lit with soft light and there are no dark or hard shadows.

Scanning Objects with Plain Surfaces

Scanning objects with simple geometric features, like a football or wine bottle, requires using Marker stickers or marker points and scanning in Marker Mode.

1. Place the Marker stickers on or around the objects’ surface irregularly and ensure there are at least 5 Marker stickers per frame for the entire scan, or the scanner will lose track.
2. Alternatively, reference objects (these are any objects with distinct features that can be easily tracked) can be used. Place 1 to 3 reference objects around the item you are scanning for the 3D scanner to track. If doing this, you can use the scanner in Feature tracking mode for the scan.

Color Scanning

For optimal color scanning, please ensure that the object is evenly lit with soft light and that there are no dark or hard shadows.
