The usage of the application is straightforward. The users would want to slowly move around the object to take various shots for taking pictures by pressing the buttons for taking a single or series of images. The user will be asked to at least 20 images.
After the scanning is done, it can be sent to be uploaded to Sketchfab, a 3D-modeling platform. The scan can be seen after a few minutes.
The RealityScan models may seem as if it is more of abstract art than believable 3D model. It is because of camera quality or them being taken from a well-lit room
