Yesterday i did a scan of Translucent object.. The scan was difficult as the laser spread inside the body of those birds.. However, with some parametric adjustment , i was able to scan and merged all scans very well for such type of object...

The following basic things to be looked into before Laser scanning:
1- Object should not be shiny
2- Object should not be dark in color

3- Object should not be transparent (glass etc.)
4- Environment lighting should be dark
