Topic: Scans are inside out

When I scan, which was a bottle with writing on it, what is on the outside of the bottle, is on the inside of the bottle.  So when you're looking at the image on the outside, its a mirror image.  If you spin it around and look at the inside of the bottle it is correct.  Anyone have suggestions on how to fix this?

Does the camera have a reverse image option?

Your right and left lasers are likely swapped (left is where right should be and vice versa).  You can fix this by swapping the wires, or you can swap the pins in the SETTINGS -> Setup page of the software.

Re: Scans are inside out

Hi, I've got another idea about this because it happened to me, too.  I believe your stepper motor is hooked up to run the opposite direction. Check the colors on your stepper connection against the assembly video.

I was going to ask whether it might be a good idea to be able to reverse the motor direction in software config because it's an easy mistake to make....and also a cool effect.
