Capturing Colored Data with ZEB Cam and ZEB Vision
Overview
The following article provides basic guidelines for capturing colorized data using the ZEB Cam and ZEB Vision.

This camera can be used with the ZEB Horizon ONLY.
The ZEB Vision uses a 4K panoramic camera to capture images of a scanned area. To ensure these images are high
quality and will lead to the best colorization output, please take the following into consideration when scanning:
• Before beginning a scan, make sure the camera is fully connected to the scanner head using the cables provided
• Whilst scanning, walk at a slower than average pace to minimize the amount of blurriness in the images
