On-Site Registration
to change on-site registration-specific settings. Consider
the following:
n
Enable Processing
- Enable Processing to find spheres, checkerboards, markers, planes, to enable
colorization, or to build the scan point cloud. Disable all scan processing during on-site
registration to save time and computing power. The scans can be processed later, off-site.
n
Registration
- Choose a registration type. The registration settings determine the method used to
align the uploaded scans to each other in SCENE. Refer to the SCENE user manual for detailed
information regarding different registration methods. Ensure that processing and the relevant
marker detection is enabled, when using target-based registration.
n
Scans to Use for Registration
- Set the number of scans to use for registration. (SCENE first tries
to register a new scan using the most recent previous scan. If this registration attempt fails,
SCENE tries to register it using the scan immediately before the last scan, and so on. If you make
a new scan that has no connection to any previous scan, SCENE attempts to register the new
scan with all the scans in the project, one after the other, as previously described. This can be
time consuming, if there are a lot of scans in the project. In such cases, consider lowering the
number of scans to be used for registration.
n
IP Address and Port:
- Manually enter the IP address of the computer running the SCENE
instance.
NOTE:
These settings are automatically set by SCENE, and should only be changed by
experienced users, who have a specific reason to change them.
