This bad data is typically found around the edges of your scan or in areas which were not
visible when acquiring the scan.
The mono-color view mode may help you identify which areas are bad.
This data may be removed using the cropping tool.
Spotting movement and lighting interference in your scans
Movement within scans can generate bad data. For example, you may see a 'noisy' scan
occasionally where the surface of scan will appear rough when it should be smooth. This
'noise' can be attributed to movement either on the part of the operator of the scanner or
the subject being scanned.
This can be solved by ensuring your subject and the operator remain still. It may be best to
retake the scan.
Lighting interference can cause large spikes in the 3D model, or cuts through the data. This
can be caused by background lighting, shiny or reflective objects that may be present in the
scan area.
