## Scanning
The motorcycle was scanned in IR-mode on the Rigil using 1.5mm resolution and feature tracking without connection to a PC. The picture of the bike misleads about the lighting conditions (modern smartphone witchery be thanked): the place was too dim for texture tracking and in these cases better results can be achieved by only using feature tracking. For scanning itself I didn't do any preparations like scan spray and focused on the both sides by using the saddle as the connection for switching sides.  
While scanning the Rigil held a constant 20 FPS (if texture tracking would be also enabled for hybrid tracking FPS will be lower). Scanning itself took roughly 5min.

## Post-Processing
Post processing was done on my workstation and included generation of the point cloud and subsequent meshing in recommended settings. Since it came out to 15M triangles I reduced it to 4M so the scan could be uploaded to Sketchfab.

Honda Motorcycle - Einscan Rigil IR Scan

## Scanning
The front was scanned in IR mode for large parts at 1mm resolution with hybrid tracking (texture and geometry). The environment was less than ideal for scanning: Harsh sunlight from the side with a crystal clear sky so no scattered light for better conditions. Also the paint was recently waxed and freshly cleaned...  
For the scan itself I slowly moved around the car trying to capture all crevices, only tracking problems were encountered on the center of the hood (no features and no texture).

## Post-Processing
Only point cloud generation and meshing at recommended settings. Scan was later reduced and aligned to the coordinate system in Quicksurface.

BMW Motorcycle - Einscan Rigil IR Mode

## Scanning
Scanning was done in sPC connected mode (WiFi, with latest update 120FPS speed) at a moderate high point distance of 0.15mm (can go up/down to 0.05mm but at 0.15mm it already resulted in a 20M triangle file...) until target quality was reached. Keep an eye on ideal scan distance since it reduces with increasing point distance. When you are too far away scanning will be drastically slower compared to when you're in the ideal distance. 

## Post-Processing
When finishing the single scans it already creates a point cloud so I only had to align using automatic feature alignment (after deleting all unnecessary data from around the object). Afterwards I used Quicksurface to align the scan to the coordinate system and reduce the triangle count to a manageable 4M triangles.

I placed the casting on bed of marker cards and geometries so I can also capture the sides of the casting which I also use for aligning the two scans I created (top and bottom). The scan itself was performed with both cross and parallel line mode taking roughly 5min for scanning. No scan spray was used for scanning.

Wood Statue Boy with Dog - Einscan Rigil

## Scanning
For scanning I placed the shell on a bed of marker cards and geometries securing it with blue tack against rolling (which actually caused problems...). The scan itself was created in standalone mode with marker tracking and 0.2mm resolution in laser mode. It tool roughly 7min to reach full data quality on the front side. I also captured the back side but supposedly the blue tack deformed which resulted in the scan being unusable... Next time I wull try clay.

## Post-Processing
When finishing the single scans it already creates a point cloud so I only had to mesh it in recommended settings (semi-watertight). Afterwards I used Quicksurface to align the scan to the coordinate system and reduce the triangle count to a manageable 4M triangles.

Trench Art from WW1 - Einscan Rigil

## Scanning
The scans were captured with wireless connection to my workstation to capture the data faster (with latest update laser mode now reaches 120FPS over WiFi, not bad at all).  
For the laser scan marker tracking was used. The scan bench was placed on a turntable with marker geometries placed around it to allow scanning from shallower angles (as seen in last picture). The resolution was set to 0.1mm and exposure was adjusted so the white print wasn't overexposed. For laser mode I used a combination of parallel and cross line laser mode, changing them by using the scanners touch screen while scanning.   

## Post-Processing
For all three scans precessing was done using the recommended settings within ExScan Rigil. This includes point cloud generation and meshing.  
After exporting the meshes I used Quicksurface to align the meshes to the coordinate system and each other. The laser scans had to be reduced to allow upload to Sketchfab.

For IR mode I chose large mode at 0.5mm resolution and marker tracking as well as small mode at 0.2mm resolution with marker tracking. Normally I don't use small mode much since I mainly use markerless laser scanning for parts where I would use it normally. My sweet spot for IR mode is somewhere between 0.5mm and 3mm.

Scan Bench - Einscan Rigil IR Large

## Scanning
Scan was done in IR mode with 3mm resolution and large mode, Rigil was used standalone. For tracking only feature tracking was used (texture would have helped but the light was dim and flickery (fluorescent tubes be thanked) so no real help...). This created a bit of a challenge when scanning the tar large flat parts of the couch. The persian carpet would have provided enough texture but it couldn't be used for tracking due flickering of the light tubes. Scan itself took roughly 5min.

## Post-Processing
Just point cloud generation and meshing at recommended settings (meshing as semi-watertight) on my workstation (simply faster than on device). After meshing I did a quick texture optimization and alignment within Exscan Rigil.

## Scanning
Scan was done in IR mode with 1mm resolution and large mode. For tracking only feature tracking was used (texture would have helped but the light was dim and flickery so no real help...). The final result consists of two scans (top and bottom) to capture the whole armchair. Between the scans I had to turn the chair around so I made sure to capture all cushiony parts in the top scan so when they are deformed after turning I already captured them. When having relatively smooth textile without much wrinkles for tracking you can always try

Wax Portrait Virgin Mary - Einscan Rigil

## Scanning
The scans were captured with wireless connection to my workstation to capture the data faster (~80FPS over WiFi).  
IR mode had to be done in feature tracking since marker tracking is not yet supported by the software. For this I used the normal size which provides better tracking and is the mode I use most often when using IR mode (same mode was selected with the Rigil in IR mode).

## Post-Processing
For both scans processing was done using the recommended settings within CrealityScan. This is basically only Fusion since it already generates a mesh at this step which can directly be exported.  
After exporting the meshes I used Quicksurface to align the meshes to the coordinate system and each other. The laser scans had to be reduced to allow upload to Sketchfab (just under 4M triangles will result in a 100MB ply when exporting from Quicksurface).

Rose Bouquet (only mesh) - Einscan Rigil

## Scanning
For scanning I just used the Rigil in standalone mode and set the target resolution to 5mm with hybrid tracking (feature and texture) and max scan distance of 1500mm. The basement isn't lit too well but it managed to capture the texture quite well for tracking and texture mapping. The whole scan took roughly 5min with a framerate of ~10FPS, 20FPS are reached in standalone mode if only feature tracking is used.

## Post-Processing
Processing only consisted of point cloud generation and meshing at default settings. Final mesh was then reduced and aligned in Quicksurface.
