Visual Quality

Set Visual quality that best fits the needs according to a description below.

Performance (Faster) - favors frame rate, using Nvidia DLSS and NIS upscaling
Default - standard rendering
Quality (Slower) - favors image quality, using Nvidia Image Enhancement

All three options also work on non-Nvidia graphic cards.

Selected Visual quality is kept between sessions and can also be changed later from Options menu on top panel in Desktop mode. Change applies immediately, in both VR and Desktop modes.

Scans Quality

Affects data quality directly.

Low - minimum quality for fast data visualization without much details. Adapted to low-end workstation or low-speed network.
Medium - all-around quality with more details, best fit for working with large scenes. Adapted to mid-range workstation.
High - allows to perform detailed actions and review with scan data. Requires a good workstation and high-speed network.

Selected Scans quality is kept between sessions and can also be changed later from Options menu on top panel in Desktop mode. Change applies to scans streamed after it, in both VR and Desktop modes.

Note: measurement units, teleportation height and accessibility options - Teleport, Vignette and Gaze Track in Accessibility of VR Tools menu - are also kept between sessions and restored at next launch.
