📚 Glossary: 3D Product Scanning Terms

Understanding these terms will help you get the most from app.voxelo.ai.


📸 Camera & Video Terms

TermDefinition
ApertureLens opening size (f-stops). Use f/8-f/11 for sharp product images.
Frame Rate (FPS)Images captured per second. 50 FPS recommended for smooth 3D models.
ISOCamera's light sensitivity. Keep low (100-400) for clean images.
Manual ModeCamera setting where you control all parameters. Essential for consistent scans.
ResolutionImage detail level. Higher (4K) = better 3D model quality.
Shutter SpeedHow long sensor is exposed. Use ≥1/100s to prevent motion blur.
White BalanceColor temperature setting. Match to your lighting for accurate colors.

🎥 Photography Terms

TermDefinition
Depth of Field (DoF)Area of sharp focus. Keep entire product in focus.
Diffuse LightingSoft, even light that minimizes harsh shadows.
ExposureOverall image brightness. Balance of aperture, shutter speed, and ISO.
LightboxBox with translucent sides for even product lighting.
Matte SurfaceNon-shiny surface that reflects light evenly.
Motion BlurBlur from movement. Avoid for quality scans.
OverlapHow much consecutive frames share the same view. Aim for 60-80%.
ParallaxShift in object appearance from different angles. Helps create 3D models.
SoftboxLight modifier that creates soft, diffuse lighting.

🎮 3D & Technology Terms

TermDefinition
Gaussian Splatting3D technology using colored "splats" for realistic, fast-loading models.
TextureSurface detail and color on a 3D model.
TurntableRotating platform for capturing products from all angles.
