This is all done before the file is converted to an STL mesh file. Try not to capture too many unwanted details, such as backgrounds, as that will increase the mesh data and file size.Īfter completing your scan, I recommend cleaning up the 3D scan in the accompanying scanner software. For this tutorial, I’m using a 3D scan that I captured on the handheld EINSTAR 3D Scanner. We’ll use Fusion 360’s ‘Mesh Section’ tool and more.īefore heading to Fusoin 360, it’s important to capture the best 3D scan possible. Today we’ll look at leveraging 3D scan mesh data by building this quick prototype of a head pointer assistive device around the 3D scan.
