In some spots like on a couch with a lot of pillows stacked it is just much easier to remove pillows and do one scan in front rather than trying to fill holes between pillows from 2-3 sides. Also using low sitting tripod where needed.. for example to scan inside sinks in kitchen/bathroom and do two scans inside a bathtub to cover it all. However I...

Why my doll house view with theta Z1 is look so bad?

marcoastan

4 yearsRichardStanton (252): This is because of your outside scanning of 3D data. The capture app and showcase are tuned for indoor environments, so it does not always know what to do with things like tree lines, etc. overlapping. You can use the trim feature to cut away what does not overlap to clean things up a bit. The splotches are just a lack of 3D data, outside small things over a larger distance = no 3d data. What you WILL get is the outside of the house....

4 yearsbryanhscott (843): @pixelray 400 total scans for one model will amount to approximately 10GB (the math: 25MB x 400). Your storage capability starting point is 80% of "Capacity" due to overhead needed by ios, etc. So, so "Available" is reduced by whatever that 20% equals to be safe. Once you run that math, do you have at least 10GB left to use? If yes, you should be good to go.
