Abstract
Examples described herein provide a method that includes performing a first scan of an object to generate first scan data. The method further includes detecting a defect on a surface of the object by analyzing the first scan data to identify a region of interest containing the defect by comparing the first scan data to reference scan data. The method further includes performing a second scan of the region of interest containing the defect to generate second scan data, the second scan data being higher resolution scan data than the first scan data. The method further includes combining the first scan data and the second scan data to generate a point cloud of the object.
