This page displays the available settings for uploading, processing, and registering scans in a connected
SCENE instance.
All uploaded scans are continuously processed and registered according to the settings below.
See the
Processing
and
Registration
chapters in SCENE manual for details regarding the processing and
registration-related settings.
Enable Processing
: This contains settings that define important processing options that can be run
remotely on SCENE after the scans have been uploaded.
Find Spheres
: Detects spheres in the uploaded scans. Use this setting, if you use spheres as external
targets for a target-based registration.
Find Checkerboards
: Detects checkerboards in the uploaded scans. Select this setting, if you use
checkerboards as external targets for a target-based registration.
Find Markers
: Detects markers in the uploaded scans. Select this setting, if you use markers as external
targets for a target-based registration.
Find Planes
: Detects planes in the uploaded scans. This setting can improve a target-based registration.
Enable Colorization
: Enables the colorization of the uploaded scans.
Build Scan Point Clouds
: Builds a point cloud from the uploaded scans. Scan point clouds facilitate a
fast visualization of scan points.
Registration
Determine the method used to align and join the uploaded scans to each other in SCENE.
No Registration
: Select this to skip the registration step.
Target Based
: Use this to perform a target-based registration for the uploaded scans. The target-based
registration uses targets to place the scans. These could be natural or artificial targets, for example,
spheres or checkerboards. Enable the corresponding settings in the Enable Processing section for this type
of registration.
Top View Based
Perform a top-view based registration. This method is sufficient in most cases, and does not require
additional targets.
Cloud-to-Cloud
: Perform a cloud-to-cloud registration. This can refine the registration of scans. It can be
very time consuming.
Top View Based plus Cloud-to-Cloud
: Perform a top-view-based registration followed by a cloud-to-
cloud registration.
