Thanks for this great tutorial, it was exactly what I needed for scanning a medical device I’m working on…

One question, you state to make sure " your object is sitting on something with many trackable features which can be found in both datasets" Then just a sentence later it states “I have also used some markers here but they are not necessary”. THey’re not necessary because there already were trackable features?.. that wasn’t clear…

The medical device I’m scanning is large… so I should probably put markers on the floor where they will be in view when taking the pics…

Thanks for this article!

Yes, that is right. The control points weren’t necessary because of the features.
