Abstract
Described herein is a system and method for scanning a three-dimensional object using data from an infrared sensor. The data can be used during preprocessing, reconstructing and/or post processing of generation of a three-dimensional model. Data from an infrared sensor and data from a sensor (e.g., RGB sensor, a depth sensor, a camera, a scanner, a digital camera, a digital video camera, a web camera, depth sensor, etc.) can be utilized to generate a three-dimensional model of the three-dimensional object. For example, the data from the infrared sensor can be utilized to identify an item and to exclude the identified item from the generated three-dimensional model.
