On behalf of those that need this function, thank you for looking into it.

Thanks indeed!  Sorry to appear ungrateful; I'm constantly impressed with the Atlas 3D and FreeLSS.  I'm getting very good results!

THis would allow you to adjust the white balance before each scan if you wanted to.

@Hairu526.  Is this something that the RaspiCam supports  (white balance)?  How complicated would it be to add such a feature, assuming it's supported by the camera?

You can color correct your scans afterward in MeshLab.  Open up your scan, then select; Filters/Color Creation & Processing/Vertex Color Levels Adjustments. 

This gives you slider controls for the levels of each color channel.  Additionally, there's a Vertex Color White Balance filter that can help bring back the original hues.

All true, but I have a need where I can take the Atlas 3D to a location, and scan numerous items for archival purposes in one session.  Afterward, I can return home and clean up the meshes, but I will no longer have access to the originals for color-matching.

If I can color-correct for the specific lighting at that particular session, then I'll have an accurate representation of the original object and its condition.

I've thought of a feature request:

Would it be possible to adjust the RGB values of the camera? 

As I play around with lighting, it seems the Pi's camera is particularly sensitive to blue light.  When using lighting other than incandescent (e.g. fluorescent, LED) the camera's images look much bluer than the object appears to my naked eye. 

Although most of my scans will be for 3D printing, many of them will be for archival purposes of family heirlooms, and the ability to color-correct during the scanning process would be an asset.

Thanks for a great product!

Thank you so much man!

EDIT: Software bought and paid for. Thank you so much.

This feature has just been released as part of FreeLSS 1.15.  You can view the post at http://www.soliforum.com/post/120459/#p120459  Also, FreeLSS Commercial licenses (ie: serial numbers) can now be obtained from the Murobo store at http://store.murobo.com/atlas-3d-software-license-only/

What I need them for is for playing around with photogrammetry. Is this something you can give us? I already purchased a PI3 and I run my original home built unit with a PI2. I am also waiting for you to make your paid for software package available so I can give that a whirl as well. I know you had some waiting to get a PI3, if you wish I could donate one to the cause if it helps you.
