Change to the Project tab on FS3D. Create or open a project to manage your captured meshes.
CONFIGURE SCANNER
Select Handheld Mode to set the scanner to continuous capture.
Place the object being scanned within 400 to 600 mm from the front plate of the sensor. Change the projector pattern to PHASE/FOCUS for live view with the scanning parameters.
Set the gain slider to its lowest value. If the live view still seems to be dark, slowly adjust the gain value until the live view has proper brightness
Toggle the projector brightness making sure the object of interest is not under-exposed (blue) nor over-exposed (red).
The object of interest should have a light-grey/white appearance on the live view.
CAPTURE DATA
Live Point Cloud Visualization
Check the Capture Only option on the left pane.
Click on SCAN to see the live view captured point cloud.
Object Reconstruction
Make sure the Capture Only option is unchecked.
Once you are done capturing, click on the STOP button and select YES to save the resulting point-cloud.
To convert the point-cloud to a mesh, use the Finalize button on the mesh editor to generate the faces and finalize the raw data.
