After the model has been created, you optionally modify the model by adjusting the sensitivity (how
many edge points are detected),or selectively remove edge points from the model, to improve
matching.
Models are saved as part of a job.
Once you have finished modifying the model, you can also modify target sensitivity, which controls how
many edge points are detected on the subsequently scanned targets that will be compared to the
model; the same edge detection algorithm used for creating models is used to compare a model to a
part.
Typically, setting up edge detection to perform part matching involves the following steps:
1. Scan a reference part (you can also use replay data that you have previously saved).
2. Create a model based on the scan (using either heightmap or intensity data).
3. Adjust the model (edge detection algorithm sensitivity and selective removal of edge points).
4. Scan another part typical of the parts that would need to match the model.
5. Adjust the target sensitivity.
6. Set match acceptance level.
