After completing general passes of the entire space, revisit key areas or objects to capture them in greater detail. Important features, such as furniture, artwork, or architectural details, require more focused attention. After completing the expected 2-4 loops of the entire environment, you can stray from the regular capture path to specifically capture these objects in greater detail. By orbiting around these items and capturing them from multiple angles, you gather comprehensive data that aids in reconstructing fine features accurately.
When capturing detail, move closer to the object of interest, but make sure not to get too close. As a general guideline, you should avoid getting closer than 1 foot (12 inches or 30 cm) to any object. Getting too close can lead to issues in reconstruction quality, such as blurred or incomplete images. Instead, maintain a reasonable distance while orbiting the object to ensure sufficient overlap in the captured data, which results in better clarity and fidelity.
This is particularly important when high levels of detail are required for certain parts of the scan, such as textures or intricate patterns. Properly capturing these details provides a richer dataset that greatly enhances the accuracy and realism of the final 3D model.
