It allowed us to work through challenges and troubleshoot the technology when applied to a purpose beyond its intended purpose. We encountered a number of unexpected issues, such as filling up the RAM in the workstation, ensuring that sharp edges and corners received extra attention, and making sure the room lighting was optimal without creating glares or shadows on the object being scanned. This process taught me that engineering can be
