The handheld 3D scanner utilizes a high-resolution digital video camera and infrared technology for distance detection. It is directly connected to a computer, which enables real-time visualization of 3-dimensional (3D) images on the monitor. The accompanying “3D Edit” software allows users to program and manipulate full-color 3D image objects by performing functions such as rotation, resizing, cutting, and deleting specific portions. The software also facilitates area and volume calculations based on user-defined regions of interest. The scanning process involves the central processing unit (CPU) of the computer performing calculations, identification, and fusion of each captured image. Therefore, a high-speed CPU and advanced graphics cards can enhance the scanning results.
