reflective, or black objects without first lightly coating the object's
surface with scanning spray, baby powder, or dry shampoo.

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 the Marker stickers on or around the objects’ surface
irregularly and ensure there are at least 5 Marker stickers per frame for
the entire scan, or the scanner will lose track.
2. 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.
Please scan the QR code to watch a Marker stickers video
tutorial.
Color Scanning
For optimal color scanning, please ensure that the object is evenly lit
with soft light and that there are no dark or hard shadows.
