Tripolis, Nymphaeum: Corinthian pilaster capital no. Tr18AÇ21, ‘Smart fusion’ performed with maximum ‘Sharpness’ and ‘Sharp fusion’ (both SD) are overlaid and compared using the ‘Distance map’ tool in Artec Studio. The tool visualizes negative distances (blue) and positive distances (red) between two models, while green indicates distances close to zero, based on the set search distance – in this case 1 mm (a). A detailed view of the same ‘Distance map’: a fine-toothed acanthus leaf shows greater distances at the bottom of the longitudinal grooves and artifacts along the edges (b). A detail of another leaf (‘Smart fusion’) also shows numerous artifacts (d). The pseudo-Corinthian pilaster capital no. Tr21AÇ03, with unfinished acanthus leaves, is also displayed using the ‘Distance map’ visualization (c). A close-up of a leaf with the series of drill holes along its edges shows no artifacts in the HD mesh (e) and numerous artifacts in the SD one (f).
