Hi Nick. Indoor vs Outdoor. I'm using Faro X330. I scan wind turbine blades that are normally (on supports) on the ground. Scanning 90% of the blade, i use an "outdoor" setting, and alignment of these scans goes well. scan distance is approximately 5-20metres. . The problem I see is when I carry out a scan very close up to the blade, and we are talking within 1 metre. I did this with the same outdoor settings, with the thinking that, oh, more points more better, and yes, the points cloud i get is very dense, but i have noticed that actually, when i come to align these 'close up scans' with the other ' far away' scans, the geometry doesn't line up. like, my closeup scans, i feel like they are distorted, and object lengths are slightly longer, and their distances to the scanner are slightly further away even...I cant understand or explain why this is, can you understand it? I will try 'Indoor' settings for close up scans in the future, thank you for your video
Hi, what would be the best setting for scanning outdoor piping systems with in a range 25ft and less. Most of the piping we scan is located outdoors and no larger the 12in diameter.
Love the spray paint analogy...gonna use that to explain. Thanks Nick
Any time! sometimes the simplest explanation is the best
Thanks for your through explanation Nick.

Do you know how to calibrate the Faro scanner? My year later began to give an error
Great video, thanks Nick.
Great class Nick.
Thank you, hopefully much more to come!

at that range, 1/4 3x would be appropriate
Thanks
