Lower quality means faster processing speeds (normally) and reduced file sizes, and higher quality is the other end of the spectrum. The ideal is generally somewhere in between with high enough resolution to be futureproof and thus creating usful models for the long term, yet small enough that we can work on and with the files. Below is a test of 3 level of detail outputs from Capturing reality of the model sculpture called Banaanipoika from the Ceramics Archive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"275\" height=\"172\" src=\"https:\/\/studios.aalto.fi\/photorobot\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2021-06-15-13_07_47-Window.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-464\"\/><figcaption>Capturing Reality had a Leve-of-Detail exporter which allows for multiple output file sizes of the final mesh.
