Scanned my motorcycle helmet this afternoon, high details selection,
the resulting file was 1 gig !!

It took me about an hour, 20 scans maybe, each time the software managed to align the new scan with the rest, perfect !

I cannot upload the stl file here, but just to give you an idea of the level of detail:
at the back of my helmet, there is a slightly embossed logo, same color as surrounding, i measured its thickness at around 0.1 mm,
the scanner did not have any problem to pick it up, you can read it at the back of the helmet: Nolan

Amazing !

The image below is a printscreen of the mesh after being reduced to around 170 meg, using Meshlab
