The Einscan Pro scanner projects a flashing light onto the object and cameras capture images of the surface. Using triangulation, a computer programme works out where the points are in space and creates a 3D replication of the object which can be edited and cleaned up. Structured light 3D scanning should be used when contact with the object would deteriorate its surface. In this case it was effective as the skulls are fragile and need to be preserved.
