Gentlemen,
Would it not be great to plug in your 3D handheld scanner from whichever company, throughout the world, and scan direct into Rhino?
What would the chances be of such a button next to MESH TOOLS appearing in time?
Only asking… the reason is that it is extremely painful to scan into a program that picks up the data/dots/triangles, reworks it and then one has to transfer to Rhino.
A bent penny in the wishing well…

Used that setup for some years. FaroArm - Geomagic - Rhino. Worked very well. Professional software for Laserscanners is more than just point cloud visualisation. There are many usefull tools to refine, join, manipulate, smooth, recalculate … scan data/point clouds/meshes,because it´s software optimized for scans. If you import a meshes with million of verts into rhino you realize very fast why there are special solutions.
