Abstract: Three dimensional (3D) scanning including dynamic detector pose identification utilizing fiducials is provided. Two or more fiducials are operatively coupled to a first body. Configuration data is provided with an identifier and a first position of the two or more fiducials. A detector captures 3D data of the first body. A creator identifies at least two fiducials within the captured 3D data. The creator determines a first observed position of each identified fiducial relative to the detector and compares the first observed position to the configuration data. The creator dynamically identifies the pose of the detector relative to the first body based on the comparison and augments the 3D data with first pose data corresponding to the first pose of the detector. The pose of the detector relative to the body may be undefined and/or unknown during the capture of 3D data without affecting the quality of the model produced from the captured 3D data.
