What is the difference between modeling and imaging?
Often customers need a specific kind of output that depends on their application of the scan data. “Imaging” refers to the point cloud data exported into a polygon model, usually as an STL file. This type of file is often used in graphics applications such as simulations, analyses, and rapid prototyping. “Modeling” refers to 3D applications where a solid model is required to reverse engineer a part or mold.
