Hi This & Scobo,

Thanks for your advice and help much appreciated. Everything you guys said makes sense. I will keep practicing.

I also got in contact with Einscan Support about the black line and scanning with the same information/videos I shared with you all. Here is their response in case you guys were curious to their reply. Pretty much said the same thing you guys saying.

Hello,
I have checked all videos.
1. The "black line" will not effect scan and i think it is caused by the angles of cameras. In the first video, you said that the calibration board is directly in the middle but has angle in the screen.
That is because the two cameras on the scanner head have angles, so it shows angles in the screen.
2.The scanner can not scan black , transparent and shiny objects.
The object in the video has black lines on it and the surface is a little bit shiny. We recommend you to spray some developer on it.
Black lines on the object is the reason that you can not get the correct data.
When scanning, the data will be seperated by the black lines which can not be scanned. The software will delete the seperated parts and preserve only one part. so you got the data in the video.

some tips:

Some objects like Rubik which is symmetrical need to add more features on them.

If you want to scan a whole data ,you can stick some plasticine on the surface to add features so that the data will be aligned when you contiue scaning.

If you also have questions ,please feel free to contact with us.

Best regards
