Software Download
To use your Revopoint POP 2 3D Scanner, you must download the Revo
Scan software. It can be found on Revopoint’s website for Windows and
macOS systems, and for Android or iOS smartphones, it can be found
by searching for “Revo Scan” in the Google Play or Apple App Store.
For the detailed functions of Revo Scan, please refer to the how-to-use
guide in Revo Scan.
ScanningDark, Transparent, or Reflective
Objects
Like most 3D scanners, the POP 2 will struggle to scan transparent,
reflective, or black objects without first treating the object's surface
with scanning spray, baby powder, or dry shampoo. For example, you
can cover a transparent or dark object with a scanning spray or dust it
with talcum powder.
Hard-to-scan Surfaces

Scanning Objects with Plain Surfaces
Scanning objects with simple geometric features, like a football or wine
bottle, requires using Marker stickers or marker points and scanning in
Marker Mode.
1.Place markers at random distributions on the surface of objects, and
it is recommended to place them at a distance of 2~4 cm. Refer to the
image below:
2. Place the Marker stickers on the objects’ surface irregularly and
ensure that there are at least 5 Marker stickers in the frame for the
entire scan, or the scanner will lose track.
3. Alternatively, reference objects (these are any objects with distinct
features that can be easily tracked) can be used. Place 1 to 3 reference
objects around the item you are scanning for the 3D scanner to track.
If doing this, you can use the scanner in Feature tracking mode for the
scan.
Color Scanning
If you want to accurately capture an object’s color during a scan, please
ensure that the object is evenly lit with soft light and that there are no
dark or hard shadows.

About the Scanner
The newly developed POP 2 3D scanner has gathered functions of a
handheld 3D scanner and a desktop 3D scanner, bringing together the
company's latest scientific research results. It adopts self-developed 3D
camera hardware technology and high-speed intelligent chip, which
contributes to a higher performance and directly outputs accurate
depth information of an object.
The core hardware of POP 2 applies the principle of binocular & Micro-
structured light, and with the help of the proprietary micro projecting
chip, POP 2 ensures fast acquiring high-accuracy (up to 0.05mm) 3D
point cloud data. And it supports texture scanning to directly generate
vivid 3D models for color 3D printing. As of intelligent algorithms, POP
2's built-in high-performance 3D calculation chip can effectively ensure
smoothly scanning without stalling even if it is used with an ordinary
computer.
