Optical 3D Scanners cannot pick up all data points and render a complete scan due to differences of surface texture, color, and obstructed lines of sight.
In 2010, MACH-T3 evaluated numerous 3D Scanners and software to add more tools to their business. They chose Geomagic Design X software because it was the only software on the market that could make parametric CAD models from 3D Scan Data.
