US Patent 11557060 Systems and methods for scanning three-dimensional objects

According to at least one aspect, a system for scanning an object is provided. The system comprises at least one hardware processor; and at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing processor executable instructions that, when executed by the at least one hardware processor, cause the at least one hardware processor to perform: generating a first 3-dimensional (3D) model of the object; identifying a set of imaging positions from which to capture at least one image based on the first 3D model of the object; obtaining a set of images of the object captured at, or approximately at, the set of imaging positions; and generating a second 3D model of the object based on the set of images.
