Figure Lengend Snippet: Equipment utilized in three-dimensional image acquisition. A handheld device (Space Spider, Artec 3D [Santa Clara, CA, USA]) with onboard blue and white light-emitting diodes (LEDs) was utilized to obtain specimen geometry (shape) and texture (color and surface pattern) data (a). Innovations such as mounting of the acquisition device on a tripod, utilization of a turntable with a nonreflective, black surface, and the use of color-coded locator pins increased both scan quality and ease of postscan processing (b)
Article Snippet: A handheld 3D scanner (Space Spider, Artec 3D [Santa Clara, CA, USA]) was used for all image acquisition, including both the geometry (shape) and texture (color and surface pattern) data [ ] by projecting a pattern of alternating light on the item while simultaneously photographing the specimen.
