Windows 10: how to get better scans with 3d scan app in windows 10?

I've watched an older channel 9 on scanning using 3d builder but I at the best get one arm and the other cut off. In addition, I get streaking with my model as I move slowly around. What settings do I have wrong and/or what environment do I need to perform a good 3d scan?

Here's what I have tried:

1. Used a non-reflective wall or darker environment with some lightning but extremely bright.

2. Walking slowly around with a T-Pose.

3. Restarting the app


Note: I do not have a lazy susan at this point. Working on a stand though for the Kinect.

I do have a Kinect V2 on a MSI GP63 Leopard 8RE.

@Derek_101,

Good, I'm glad it worked! Sorry you didn't find our website where the steps are listed.

Pro tip: In the 3D Scan app in the bottom left corner. There is the word "Help" that is a hyperlink. Click on that and it goes straight to our 3D Scan website. The Camera calibration tips are under the section "Tips for best scanning results"

 

3D scanning

Hey I'm interested in 3D scanning. What are the things I should buy to make that possible in my windows pc?. I use windows 10, 64 bit, 4GB RAM, i5 processor, I use Intel (R) HD graphics 4600. I downloaded the 3D builder app and the 3D scan app. What else
should I do/buy.

@BRUNOBORIS,

The camera app built into Windows 10. Type "camera" into Cortana and hit enter. Then just follow the steps I listed above.

3D Scan has a Depth, Width and Height manual adjustment settings. They are visible in the app. They allow you to adjust what the Kinect sees. Anything that is in color in the preview window the Kinect can see, anything that is in black and white is not visible.
Play around with the settings (slide them back and forth) to focus in on what you want to scan.
