What is ScanView?

ScanView is an innovative new scanning mode designed to enhance your capture experience. With real-time project visualisation, improved scan accuracy, and better alignment tools, ScanView helps you optimise every step of the scanning process.

Key Features of ScanView

  • Advanced View: See your project in real time as you scan

  • Visual Guidance: Plan your next scan location efficiently and avoid missing any key areas

  • Improved Accuracy: Align scans on the go, ensuring better post-processing results

  • Enhanced User Interface:

    • Floor View – Track which floor you are on

    • Zoom & Navigation – Easily move around your project

    • Manual Adjustments – Realign scans if necessary

    • Panorama Preview – Check scan quality before finalising

How Does ScanView Work?

Using ScanView is simple and intuitive. Here’s what to expect:

1. Capturing the Scan

Pressing the Scan button will open the ScanView menu.

  • Press Start Scan and step out of the room while the camera captures the environment

  • Wait for the scan to complete

2. Reviewing the Scan

The scan’s position is automatically calculated based on tracking. A real-time map helps visualise progress and ensures complete coverage.

If the positioning isn’t accurate, you can manually adjust the alignment:

  • Select the scan number and choose Change location to move scan to a different floor

  • Select the scan number and choose Realign Scan and adjust positioning using gesture controls. Use visual clues (e.g., walls, furniture) to guide precise alignment. Ideal precision: ±0.3m, ±25° for the best results.

  • Well-aligned scans improve post-processing accuracy and project turnover time

Once satisfied with the scan placement, continue to the next scan location.

Known Limitations

  • Large open spaces (e.g., outdoor or industrial areas) may affect automatic tracking.

  • Projects exceeding 60 scans may experience slower processing.
