Tips & Tutorials: Common Mistakes in Dimensioning

Common mistakes:

1. The wrong way: Scanning an item from an angle
   The right way: Scan items from above
   
   
2. The wrong way: Holding the device too close to the object
   The right way: Stability is key - keep the device still.
   
   
3. The wrong way: Shaking the device or moving it around while dimensioning
   The right way: Maintain clear space - maintain a minimum distance of 25 cm from the object
   
   
4. The wrong way: Dimensioning on an uneven surface or the edge of a surface such as an edge of a weight scale
   The right way: Flat & level surface - place the object on a flat and level surface. Ensure the item is not positioned at the edge, and the edge of the surface is not visible during dimensioning.
