Models may be exported from ScanStudio in either the wavefront obj or stereolithography stl formats and imported into Blender via the Import submenu of the File menu Models imported using the obj format will be textured but the stl format has no support for colors or textures 93 of 126 4 5 4 Rhinoceros You can open your SCN files directly in Rhino 4 0 by downloading the SCN file importer plugin from http en wiki mcneel com default aspx McNeel NextEngine html NOTE The SCN importer is still under testing so we recommend that you export your files as an OBJ and then take it into Rhino The importing of OBJs has been throughly tested If you do not have the plug in installed or if you are using Rhino 3 0 you will need to export your scans as an OBJ or STL file we recommend using OBJ files We highly recommend using Rhino 4 0 currently in Beta but should be released in early 2007 See www rhino3d com for details Inside ScanStudio 1 Make sure the model is fused gt 2 Drag the blended family thumbnail into the green side of the bottom view bar 3 If you have the SCN importer for Rhino 4 0 simply save your SCN file and then open it in Rhino If you do not have the SCN importer then goto File gt Save As gt and change the file type to OBJ and save an OBJ file Inside Rhinoceros Please download the following tutorials for information on working with imported meshes in Rhinoceros http www nexte

31. ecause of the possibility of the object moving during scanning Eyes can be kept open or closed for the process I found that the laser actually appeared brighter when my eyes were closed probably due to scattering of the laser by the eyelid With my eyes open the system was able to capture the surfaces of the sclera whites as well as the iris I expected the pupil to be a hole but instead it formed a small spike a few mm beyond the iris I suspect this may actually be data from the laser passing through the cornea bouncing off the retina then back through the cornea to the camera During the scan I blinked normally which didn t seem to have much if any effect on the result When you are done scanning I recommend that you use the surface merge tool to merge your two or three scans together Surface Merge can be found under Fuse in the menu bar Surface merge is the best option for the face scans again because of the possibility of the object moving during scanning For most scans you will want to use volume merge After merging go to Polish Remesh to fill in the holes You can choose fill all holes if you want it to close the back of the face scan or you can choose a specific circumference so it will keep the back open 120 of 126 6 3 Dental Molds Scanning You can download the sample model used here from this link http www nextengine com models teeth nzip Scanning Add alignment points marks before scanning details gt
