Important Update on Einstar Vega and StarVision V1.1.0

October 29, 2024

Dear Einstar Vega Users/ Everyone,

It’s been a couple of months since the launch of the Einstar Vega all-in-one 3D scanner. We know that some features and updates are still pending, and today I’m excited to announce a major update for the Vega app (v1.1.0) and PC software StarVision (v1.1.0.16). This update introduces enhanced features that make the 3D scanning experience significantly faster and more intuitive while improving overall performance. 

Key Insights

Scanning large or flat objects with limited geometric or textural features has been challenging. With the new Marker Alignment feature in Fast Mode, you can now achieve precise scans for objects that are symmetrical or lack distinct patterns. This enhancement simplifies the scanning process and improves accuracy.

For instance, this update will make car body or Vehicle scanning a lot faster and more efficient.

  • Working distance (DOF) can now be adjusted in HD Mode:
  • Previously, the working distance or Depth of Field (DOF) in HD Mode was somewhat restricted. With this update, you can now adjust the depth of field between 100mm and 250mm, accommodating a wider range of applications especially while scanning humans at a close-up range and making it easier to scan various object shapes and sizes.

  • Two new languages - Traditional Chinese and Japanese: 
  • The software now includes Traditional Chinese and Japanese, making it more accessible for users of these languages.

  •  Reduce the applying time after point cloud editing.
  • The data processing workflow is now streamlined. The time required to apply changes after editing point clouds has been drastically reduced to just a few seconds. The overall processing speed is now significantly improved by merging the point cloud processing phase into the meshing phase.

    Now you can adjust brightness with a swipe gesture, previously uncomfortable for big hands, to a way easier tap gesture. Now, simply tap the upper part of the window to increase exposure and tap the lower part to decrease it. 

  • Add some default settings for scanning
  • Several new default settings have been implemented to optimize scanning based on specific use cases. For instance, Portrait Mode will now automatically enable texture mapping, and the default working distance has been adjusted to a practical range of 350-750mm. Additionally, the data quality indicators have been modified to better align with different scanning modes, along with clear instructional prompts to guide users when initiating a scan. The step-by-step instructions make this beneficial for beginners or entry-level users. 

  • Fixed some bugs.
  • Various bugs have been resolved to enhance overall performance.

    PC Software StarVision V1.1.0.16 updates :

    • You can check for updates and install them directly on your scanner when connected to the internet.
    • The new version includes features such as marker hole filling during meshing, support for displaying point cloud markers, and improved memory management for a more efficient operation.
