In the scan mode, the user has several ways how to stop the scan. These can be controlled by the settings in the Recording panel:



The user may end the scan at the end of the scan area, defined in the Stage panel.


An alternative is to stop the scanning when an object is detected:

  • When working with perClass Stage, this option significantly simplifies our scanning work-flow when acquiring training data sets. In this situation, we wish to have each object saved into a separate scan. Because the scanning is stopped by object detection, we can also place objects anywhere on the stage. 
  • Stopping on object detection enables also enables comfortable data acquisition on top of industrial belt systems.

In both of these scenarios, the extra option trims the resulting scans to avoid extensive background areas.

Naturally, the scanning is also interrupted if the scan size reaches the pre-allocated number of frames or the stage table reaches its maximum position.


At any moment during the scanning, user can also stop the acquisition using the Stop toolbar button
