Artec Leo
2.1.1 About Color Overlays
Leo colors the scene that it scans. This coloring, or overlay can be made on the
basis of:
• Scan suciency
• Distance to the object.
2.1.2 About Tiltable Display
When scanning particular objects or regions, you may need to tilt or rise your Leo
scanner. In this case, the display content may disappear from your sight. What
comes in handy is the ability to tilt the display to observe the scanning scene:
1. Put your ngers into the nger recesses near the display.
2. Drag both ends of the display to tilt it down.
To broaden your user experience with displaying 3D content, you may as well
employ an external mobile device.
2.1.3 Prepare Object and Surroundings
Before scanning, ensure that the objects meet the following requirements:
• They must be stationary.
• They should have geometry and/or texture features.
• They should have no black, transparent or reective surfaces.
• They should be uniformly lit.
• There is enough space around the object for you to scan it.
If the object doesn’t meet all the requirements, it can still be scanned. You may
need to prepare its surface (see the table below).
