Special Object Scanning
Please use scanning spray when scanning transparent or specular surfaces in Multi-Line Laser modes. Using scanning spray is recommended when scanning transparent, black, specular, or highly reflective surfaces in Full-Field Structured Light modes.
Use scanning spray for transparent, dark, or highly reflective objects.

Note:
1. Precision is how close repeated measurements of the same object are to each other. Accuracy is how close a measured value is to the actual (true) value. They were both acquired in a controlled lab environment. Actual results might vary, subject to the operation environment.
2. Class 1 Laser: Avoid direct eye exposure for extended periods! Refer to Standards for Class 1 Lasers for details.
3. Outdoor scans should avoid direct sunlight.
4. Some products have flashing lights, which may not be suitable for people with photosensitive epilepsy.
5. The MIRACO series 3D scanners require no PC when scanning. But the PC requirements above should be followed if you connect the MIRACO to Revo Scan (PC) for more operations.
