Edge Filtering
Part scans sometimes contain noise around the edges of the target. This noise is usually caused by the
sensor’s light being reflected off almost vertical sides, rounded corners, etc. Edge filtering helps reduce
edge noise in order to produce more accurate and repeatable volume and area measurements, as well as
to improve positioning of relative measurement regions. Optionally, the Preserve Interior Feature
setting can be used to limit filtering to the outside edges of the target.
